Waconia Post Office Documentary

[@argerinejordan4703]

Wow! That post office is giving me PTSD. Retired 2 yrs ago after 33 yrs. Life is great!

[@UsMaLeMan1]

4:30 Postmaster or supervisor actually admitting that what a city carrier does is HARD WORK. Every one of these dirtbags I've ever encountered thinks it's easy and we take to long.

[@Will818SF]

🤣

[@SaintGBar22]

💯

[@dreamafreeman662]

Absalutely I work rural route! I don't understand the city side of it, I just know it definitely doesn't look easy at all. 💪💪

[@davidsargent6631]

UsMaLeMan1 agree they all suck come back three day holiday weekend have 35 ft of mail tell me I can do it 8 hours and come out and tell me be back at 5 still had half my route to do

[@argerinejordan4703]

I hated them all

[@telleyvestal3351]

This Documentary is absolutely awesome

[@brybrun]

This is crap. They didn't show any supervisors harrasing him, which is how it is.

[@pizzabox710]

7am to 5pm? Unless it's Christmas there's no way the post office allows that much overtime. Also if they come in at 7 and don't leave the office until 10 then they must be slow as dirt casing mail. The post office I work at you show up at 8 and leave no later than 10 (unless you gotta double case) and then be back by 4:30. That's an 8 hour day. Granted not every day is like that, but that's what it should be.

[@kongtcheng2009]

Shawn krammer, what time u go everyday? If u go home around 1pm to 3 pm then they r slow and u r fast. It's not about when u leave the office. It's about when u r going home.

[@NathanSotoGuitar]

Thanks for posting. I always wanted to show my friends and family what my past was like 6 years ago

[@edwardestep970]

As an RCA if loaded packages like that I would have a shit fit. Running a 40 mile et you can't take all day to look for package.

[@UsMaLeMan1]

4:14 Didn't curb his wheels...

[@XxSEETH3RxX]

Only on hills.

[@janssenmanzano2138]

XxSEETH3RxX u have to curb ur wheels everytime

[@Juice10GL]

You curb your wheels always. It prevents roll away/runaways. Don’t forget the park break.

[@randomsanwhich2]

Juilian and Janita Snead brake*

[@bryandu5708]

Wheels wasn't curbed.

[@lovablelibra]

The video would be really long to show everything a carrier does. Like for instance pulling hot case mail, and going to the cage for keys and accountable. Always gonna be a complainer. THIS WAS A NICE VIDEO.

[@DeathInANuse]

Love opening the mail box and seeing that wonderful pink card. It means I get to deliver my own mail. YIPPEEE!

[@MadDog211]

George looks like the type of guy that would drop a 1 hour swing but in reality it’s two

I'll probably see this again in the morning; that's the way it is with corn.

1:30 1:44 1:59 is the proper way to gently toss parcels 😀.. 2:29 wow look at all those tacos! 3:24 she means the LLV or a Chevy S10

[@anthonyholmes195]

Mondays,Christmas,graduation,after holidays are the heaviest volumes

[@timsouttahere]

George does not look happy.

[@allaroundant6720]

Most people at the post office are miserable

[@timsouttahere]

@@allaroundant6720 I'm not

[@RevolverOcelot2008]

What about the lazy carriers abusing the union and not coming into work so you have to do 1-2+ hours off of another route plus your own

[@dreamafreeman662]

😒😥😥 AGREED

[@lucascunha5879]

I thank those guys. More money for me!

[@victorfrankenstein50202]

There always be milkers, and abusers of the system. Unfortunately, that’s just life.

[@vinces4263]

Must have been a light parcel day. My route is heavier than that EVERY DAY

[@mamabear3887]

Well .. They dont wanna scare the kids. 😅

[@bindig1]

And in order to save money, the carriers are given anywhere from 30 minutes to multiple hours of extra work on another route and are expected to do that AND their own route in the 8 hr time frame. Supervision claims it doesn't take any longer and will have disciplinary hearings, your "day in court" that call it, if you take any longer than 8 hrs to do more than 8 hrs of work. Only the letter carriers are subjected to this practice termed "pivoting". It's an every day argument based on flawed mail counting procedures

[@eddiew2325]

Some routes are way easier than others. Pivoting only works in certain cases.

[@alandr504]

mailman got it ruff now i see why they get paid a lot of money fuck they should get more

[@calgary2800]

Its the hardest job I've ever had, no breaks or full lunch. With the amount of Amazon packages there is simply never enough time.

[@tysheia11]

timchuk mark they didn't give y'all the postmaster yet

[@Davidmaccc]

If the job sucks so bad why am I working my 5th year and no one is retiring or quitting so I can go full time

[@Hater20X]

Here's what I say.. they pay you less than your worth but just enough to keep you crawling back for more..

[@UsMaLeMan1]

3:24 NOT a jeep...

[@GoatyHerps]

You have got to be the smartest man alive.

[@TheZozz999]

ONLY 500 to 600 houses a day?? WEAK!! I do 900 houses every damn day AND I have to have my ass back at the office BEFORE 3pm....

[@protazyo]

+TheZozz999 900? lol that will be my dream route. our lowest delivery is 1100 :)

[@jsombf]

+Tazyo Indoy You must have quite a bit of apartments and developmental neighborhoods with CBU boxes.

[@protazyo]

jsombf That's the sad part about it. I have 4 1/2 hours of P/L and 2 hours of NDCBU. All our routes in our zone have 7.15 hours street time. This is due to route adjustment a few years back where we don't have much mail. But now, the volume is way too much for our routes.

[@danasiawhitfield1160]

TheZozz999 impossible what time are u heading to route 7am ? Lol my guys aren't back until pass 6 my office is a level 21

[@davidsargent6631]

Carry a bag on each shoulder not good my right shoulder is caved in from carrying one if you walk thirty years your body used up being city carrier is hard job

[@craigc1879]

The carriers postmaster and clerks seem to get along, I can tell by their body language. The office I was in was full of hate, ruined the job., Clerks wouldn’t let us get our stuff, and if we did they stopped working and left.

[@joeblack363]

That's a pretty messy post office if I do say so myself as a carrier

[@timiahfoster7040]

Thanks USPS

[@finyellow5656]

Why are they working so slow to load the trucks? In real life, we would get bad looks for moving slow.

[@colbymarks7225]

George didn't curb his wheels when he parked that truck for his first delivery.

[@Industen]

3 hrs to case? George you must be on the radar. We start at 8 leave by 9 with No FSS.

[@judah3574]

Obviously you working in a small ass town delivering to a resident of trailer park communities if you cast mail for a full route in an hour. Most casing takes 2 and a half to 3 hours to cast, and I worked in two different postal stations to know that. There's no way you casing mail for a full route under an hour. That's like one piece of mail for every slot. Out here in Texas, we start off casting mixed mail addressee for up to an hour and a half. Then a 2nd volume of mail where it's in order from your 1st stop to your last stop. And it takes about another hour to cast those. But if you doing a regular size route, and getting your casting in under an hour, I'd like to know how you casting it that fast??

[@Industen]

@@judah3574 We start at 8 and the whole office is out by 9-9:15. I average around 100 parcels a day. We have 50 routes. I do the same, mixed mail then sorted flats. I do this everyday. Day after holidays maybe 9:15

[@kongtcheng2009]

Industen, If u leave office at 9am, then u should be back at 1pm because u left very early. If not, then u don't know what u talking about.

[@Industen]

@@kongtcheng2009 Maybe your office is adjusted by volume of mail? We have 6.5 hours of street time, the other hr is to case and the other for lunch, travel time, and comfort stops. How much street time do you get?

[@kongtcheng2009]

@@Industen we case everything including fss and dps. every route have nbu and cbu only. Most of the routes have about 850 to 1000 deliveries. My route has 856 deliveries and it took me 3 to hours to case everything and took me 3 hours on the street. I start at 8am and go home between 1 to 3 pm depends on the mail value.

[@brob5384]

Funny how first day of orientation for the post office you're told not to throw packages.

[@danindeed]

Bryan Robinson I thought the same thing. I also thought that the voice over and music for this video was horrid. Everything else was good.

[@darkshadow851]

+Bryan Robinson Not sure what orientation you went to... mine was a bit more realistic though.

[@jsombf]

+Bryan Robinson You can and have to toss the packages in that particular job as long as they are not heavy, marked fragile or breakable. It's not realistic for the clerk to walk, EVERY SINGLE PACKAGE, to EVERY SINGLE HAMPER and to EVERY SINGLE and GPC.

[@robertlee4767]

That’s nothing, I’ve worked at ups and usps and can tell that the real abuse happens in the plants, we’re talking chucking packages but that’s all in upper supervisions expectations not the employees choice necessarily
