Work Hours & Job Duties at the USPS (PSE Clerk 2020) | My experience | RQ

[@tiambriaphillips5479]

I've been working with usps for almost a month now and I've had only two days off and all 12 hour shifts but I love it. It keeps me busy which is what i have been looking for in a career. I hope to be working with the usps for the next at least 30 years

[@RqOutandAbout]

Wow. That is so nice! Do you work at the plant or station? I would love to work 12 hours shift and get two days off. 👍

[@Mikabeeofficial]

They love to move PSE’s around a lot! It gets a bit annoying lol I’ve been a pse for 2 years / two months and I’m finally getting converted! Y’all stick it out. Take your time working even if they rush you. There’s always a way to work at a good paced and have your numbers good. Don’t let them take advantage of you. union Stewart’s are helpful too. Good luck guys

[@jjoyojoyy]

Were you working 6 days a week also for those 2 years?

[@mattmacdonald4135]

I was a PSE at the Statesboro post office. The biggest problem was most of the staff had horrible attitudes. They treat new people like crap. If you asked a question they would act like they could not hear you or they would give you an attitude or make a negative comment about you. I was working 6 days a week and around 60 hours a week and I would usually work from 5 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. during the week and then 5:00 a.m until 3:00 p.m on my weekend shift. When you are working in the back with packages you do not get a 15-minute break. You might get a 15 minute break as a clerk on the window. It's a physical job, and you have to be there early, and it's long hours, but the worst part was that most of the staff there had a horrible attitude.

[@infamousicee6009]

Damn it was that bad over there? I was thinking of leaving FedEx to come over there but I’m surprised by all these negative comments about USPS, cause I thought they would be the best shipping company to work for & 6 days straight is to much, I wouldn’t trade that for my 2 days off, which is weekend’s off.

[@snow3999]

I resigned from the Post Office last week. I wasn’t there very long. The people were horrible. Everyone looked and acted like they hated being there. I was lucky to get a new job. It’s less hours and lower pay at my new job but the atmosphere is totally different. I didn’t realize working at a bad atmosphere job puts more strain on your body additionally to what you put your body through physically. I feel lighter even though I’m doing more physical work now.

[@angiegray4026]

Wow! I’m a 33-year USPS employee. I’m in management now at the plant, but I was a clerk for thirty years in two different plants and at a delivery unit. You explained your duties well and you have learned the postal “lingo” very quickly. I enjoyed your video. Your video came up on my KZbin feed and I was interested in what you had to say.

I am scheduled to get my fingerprinting tomorrow. What comes after the fingerprinting? Orientation, is that when they tell you more about the hours, benefits, job description, how long it takes to covert to a regular? Can I give my old work 2 weeks notice once I accepted the PSE position at the station? Can I withdraw from the position after the fingerprints if I am not sure about the work hours at the post office station as a PSE if its' part time or full time?

[@tainlor]

you can withdraw at any time through the hiring process. You can also withdraw at orientation if you want as well. PSE can be full time/part time based on location at a station, distribution center, or processing plant. It is based on workload, staffing, and other factors.

[@RqOutandAbout]

Anna, tainlor is right. During the orientation make sure to ask questions about your concerns. PSE hours is not guarantee 40 hr/week. Before I started, they told me that I would be getting around 20 to 40 hrs a week, but I have been getting over 40 hrs a week, it really depends on the station you work at.

Isn't it a conflict of interest, what company has its own union, paying their own employees to represent union members paying monthly $60 union dues, gaining no money for winning grievances, when you can, for free, file an EEO within 45 days of Usps offenses, winning up to $300,000. for discrimination and up to $4 million for retaliation? Usps union is complicit with Usps management, with patterns of unfair labor practices, racism, retaliation against whistleblowers, also discrimination and retaliation against injured on duty disabled employees! See McConnell vs Usps, ( found guilty for discrimination against 23,000 injured on duty disabled employees, since 2005 national reassessnment program), Pittman vs Usps, Glover vs Usps, and many, many more cases for decades! Past 5 years Usps paid out $5,631,795. for sexual harassment. Exercise your legal rights under federal protection Laws, No Fear act of 2002, prohibited personnel practices, due process, equality act of 2010, civil rights act chapter 7, rehabilitation act of 1973 (504), and disability act. CYA!!! Don't be duped into paying monthly $60 union dues, = $720 annually, × 30 year career = $21,600.

When you come into the post office all jobs are non career until you convert and make career unless you applied for a position that said “career” your considered part time but depending on office you’ll work full time

Hi, I have never work at the plant. My co-workers did and they said it was harder there than where we are now (station). I would say it's not easy working at the station as well. We are still on our feet 8 to 10 hours a day, lifting bunch of packages.

Hey I recently accepted the same PSE POSITION as you what are the different hours from beginning to end??? Do you always start at 4 or does everyone come in at different times? is split shift offered there? Or do you work 8to10 straight

How long does it take for the USPS to convert you as a regular PSE Clerk for Plant or Station and get full medical benefits and 401(k) retirement plan?

Hi Anna, that's what I'm not sure about. It could take a couple of years. And yes, once you become regular you get all the benefits.

Dear God. Aren't these salaried positions so no matter how many hours you work your paid the same annual wage?...I was curious about the USPS as a possible entry into a good pension program however, this sounds like the worst job in the country....not going to miss my kids growing up working 6 days a week or others report the potential for NO days off and working 12 hours that starts at 4am! Ahhh. Good on you for being able to do this I guess...but maybe consider a different job....
