I FUCKING suck at my job! I'm an RCA and man... today was a total disaster. I started almost 2 weeks now and casing is a nightmare! Today was a heavy volume day; DPS up the fucking ass, parcels, flats, everything! I do this in my Honda fit lmao! Bottom out trying to use my Civic a few days ago before I got this car. The regular on my route is on maternity leave and I'm thrown into the shark tank doing this 6 days a week. Today I worked 11 hours because I fucked up so bad trying to do the whole route. I got MF honking at me because the mail box is so damn close to the road. Old guy called my supervisor and flagged me down because I didn't have his flag up when medicine was delivered and flag down when no mail. I have over 300 address man!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh help God!!!!

Don’t waste time on something with no benefits. I applied as a cca & broke my a*** to deliver mail with no benefits. You don’t suck at it, the sh*t is hard. I’m assuming the A in RCA is assistant. Apply to something else asap & keep it a secret because NO ONE In the PO is your friend!!. Best of luck :).

I’m making more money cooking, it’s a shorter drive, and the atmosphere is better. We laugh and have fun, but we get our work done, our residents appreciate us and so does our director. Even our owners come in the kitchen and make sure we’re all okay. They don’t care about O/T, so we usually stay late a few days a week and get ahead with our work. We have a set system which the post office I was in, nobody worked the same way and you didn’t “dare” approach the postmaster!

How I cased when I was a rca is if I had dps I would case all the flats and manual mail and then throw chunks in the case from the dps till my first flat or manual piece then put that mail in that slot then continue with chunks and stopping at my next manual or flats. Was very fast imo. The case I'm doing now is all manual mail so it takes forever to case.

Q? When trays of mail that is received from the distribution center, are those already sorted, and casing is just to marry other items like large envelopes, etc? How do packages get sorted, looks time consuming. Does the carrier put a marker where there’s a pkg in the case? What about COA or forwarding, if forwarding marker is found, is there a separate area/room where those mail are relabeled with the yellow sticker with the new address, and is there someone else assigned to do that or is it done by the carrier. And what about hold mail. There are so many people who move and request mail to be held. And since hold mail works on an address, not individual, does the LPO ever ask the resident if they still reside there? Because if new tenants move in, and there’s a hold mail by the previous resident, new residents will never get there mail coz the one that move gets everything for that address when they pick it up. Also, what happens when a carrier sees a COA but there’s already a yellow sticker on the envelope, does the carrier continue to forward that in the chain. What if you have an ex that moved out, submitted a COA under family, so it forwards their mail as well as the ex. So they in turn submitted a COA to have it forwarded back to them, wouldn’t that essentially put the mail in a continuous forwarding loop?

With all those very thin separators, its doesn't seem like there's enough space for letters and such. I get a ton of junk everyday and I know it won't all fit in between those dividers. The whole process to keep track of all the stuff for each address seems so involved, it's a wonder everything arrives when it should. And how do you keep track of packages for each address? Do you have a reminder that there is a package for a specific address? I'm considering an RCA position but all I hear is how tough it is to learn because you don't get much training before you get sent out on routes by yourself. And that the management will work you to death and will constantly yell at you for not finishing up quickly even if you are new. What do you think?
@opiehelstrom4702
@opiehelstrom4702 3 жыл бұрын
You won't actually know if it fits or not till you do it. You'd be surprised what you can fit in there. There are place card holders for packages. It doesn't really matter how much time you have on a you're for training . It takes time to get it down and find your flow. Just focus on getting the premise of it down and being accurate. Speed is a secondary thing that comes with reputation. They usually give you a week.eith the carrier shadowing and then a week of doing it with them. Then you have to fly. Unfortunately you'll never really feel "ready" but you just have to do it. Key is to take it one step at a time. I found when delivering packages writing a quick route map helped me.

I'm a veteran carrier, not a clerk. I would recommend taking photos of your case strips and then writing them on index cards at home. Each different split will have different color line of symbols below it and you should write that down for study purposes. Hold the stack of mail on your left arm like you would hold a baby rather than going to the case ledge for each piece. I did that when I was a CCA and I was super fast at casing, which meant I got office overtime instead of walking overtime. You should be taking maybe one second to throw up each letter or flat and that will make you faster than most of the regs. Keep your feet planted in front of your case, don't be making 100 trips to the hot case, and don't be talking to people. It slows you down. Load up your DPS (and FSS if you have it) on the way out the door. The biggest time waster I see in the station is carriers spending too much time walking back and forth, and of course talking incessantly about irrelevant bullshit.

No. The mail comes in trays. Then you fill in the raw mail and flats. This is your while route. So if you're a city carrier you take your DPS onto the street with what you put up in this case. If you're a real carrier they put up all their mail including DPS. Then pull down and load their vehicles.

Management wants you to throw you DPS on the street because they want you out of the office asap. It gives clerks more time and space to do their stuff. Addresses face left. Flats spine up. Bigger stuff behind the smaller stuff. Leave anything thick aside so you're not jamming up your case. Then case them in last. A few feet of flats and raw letters should take about 30 - 40 minutes to put up.

@@Modernnwave Regulars are typically smart enough to know when to take days off and when to work. I'm willing to bet you that you're working on their route on the heavy days of the week such as Monday or Circular Day. And of course most take off two days after a postal holiday. So right there you're already at a disadvantage. I would say on a fair day a Regular will probably be about 30 minutes faster than their sub if the sub is just as proficient at the route. This is mostly because you still need time to acclimate to the route from being different routes all week and you're not picking up right where you left off of from the day before on the same route. You know your holds that are going out, you don't know the forwards as well when you have do your markups etc... But 2 hours is quite a bit of difference. I'm just going to take a shot in the dark here and say that you're probably taking more time to go through and organize your parcels than they do. And maybe they can zip through their raw letters faster. These two things alone could close that gap. Some people run around like energizer bunnies too. Like I said in an earlier post.. you can shave like 30 minutes off your day if you want to run to door steps and slam on your pedals huffing and puffing to "win the race" but fighting your route just makes for a fustrating day. Instead of worrying about what time your regular is making, pay attention to the route estimate and how long it's "supposed" to take you. If you're beating that number than you're doing fine. I would actually arch an eye brow if a sub routinely is faster than their regular.

Great question!!!! Most carriers appreciate that and want it that way! Basically as long as it fits into a mail box, we call it a spur, which can go in flat totes. Not with the actual flats cuZ that'd make a mess. But those same totes are used for the spurs. Think like wish items and books, chargers, small stuff.

Yup! You think mail people just drive and put mail in a box! They do it all! Case the mail up sort the packages, grab certified letters, the job is hard and not for everyone. Next time you see your mail person offer then water because they need it

Opie Helstrom thank you for your answer, how long does it take to give the induction after the fingerprints? How can I be better prepared for induction? I’m studying English and it is difficult for me to communicate, but I understand the instructions in English well, would I have problems for that? Thank you.

The answer to your question is no it not legal to record the work room floor, but you can record in the lobby or the parking lot, that is the reason why there are no security cameras on the floor.
