And stop stealing niggas EDD checks, y’all ain’t slick
Bro that was literally one dude and the postal inspectors got his ass. If they arrested him that means they were on his ass for MONTHS and were just letting him hang himself.
Like I said, don't fuck with the postal inspectors. They have similar clearance to the FBI with the same judicial backing and they only care about the mail. Those dudes are insane so long as you aren't a carrier being robbed then suddenly their phone is disconnected but that's a whole mother convo...
Besides that one dude I'd imagine most of the people stealing checks are people on the street that go through people's mail boxes when they aren't at home. If you live on a block within 300 feet of a main street with a lot of foot traffic, I highly suggest you either go strictly direct deposit or at the very least get a mail box that locks and empty that shit every couple of days at least. Too many scammers out here these days man, it's wild.

It's been looking a lot bigger lately since I've dropped 50 lbs since I started. It was already big but now I'm considering doing an OnlyFans because I must share my magnificent pecker with the world.

@johnnyhimrod were you an mha or a pse? I can imagine that it would suck ass, especially if you're in an overburdened plant.

You guys keep track of the "good" and "bad" folks on your routes and does that influence how far you're willing to go/not go the extra mile for someone?
I always exchange greetings with my carrier whenever I see him and I make sure to clear out the front of my mailbox in the winter from the plows pushing snow on it so he can get to it without as much hassle.
Whenever I have packages he always kinda hides them for me whereas with my neighbors they just get put up by the door in plain view.
(For the record, I've never told him to do anything in particular with my packages in terms of keeping them out of sight)

Kind of? I try my best to go above and beyond for everyone on my route but some people just ain't worth it. There's one dude I deliver to that his house often either has his sad ass dog on the porch or dog shit directly in front of the porch gate. On those days that gentleman does not get his mail.
There's no one I go out of my way to not look out for but there is this one lady who keeps asking me for money and shit that I'm getting sick of. But really, I try to do good for everyone on my route but yeah some people get a little extra care because they give a little extra care.
Shoveling out is definitely a huge plus, you're definitely on your carrier's "oh God bless you" list.
If you give your mailman some ice water on a hot summer days you'll get amazing service year round. Also, if they aren't doing something the way you like it done...let us know when you see us (that isn't crazy like asking us to walk up your 100 ft driveway to deliver a small ass package that isn't medication).

Are you worried about going POSTAL?

You know me so well

My first month or so I definitely considered walking of the job a few times. Once I even called my mom I was so upset with the amount of work I had to do. This is a hard hard job. But it has super rewarding moments.
Handing some dude you see everyday his pills that keeps him living. Being followed up and down the block by kids who treat you like some kind of superhero. Once during Christmas I delivered this keyboard to this little house. A little girl like 7 years old kicked open the door and was so damn happy she was convulsing with glee
"Is this yours?"
"YYYYYYEEEESSSSSSSS"
"Practice, practice, practice"
"I WILL THAAAANNNKK YYOOOUUU"
This was at the end of a long, long day and a long, long week. It made it all worth it just to see how happy she was.
I've been pushed nearly to tears by the both the bad and the good from this job.

@manulous MHA. My plant was actually pretty chill but I chose to work overnight for some reason and it took a toll on me after a while.
But I've heard may stories from Carriers and everything you said about them hours is true lol

No cap growing up my moms mom worked for usps and she was the first “rich” person I’ve ever seen big house , taking us on family trips, nice Christmas gifts when we were young so congrats bro cause I know that check is thick also ironically you worked at a casino and that’s exactly where she lost hundreds of thousands of dollars lmao she was addicted weird right? Lol all in all I have no question only advice don’t develop a gambling habit with your new found riches or you will gamble your life savings away fall out with your daughter and most likely fall out with her kids as well. TMI I know but I don’t care to be honest.

Preciate you bro but to be real shit happened years ago we been fell out thankfully my non rich granny on my dad side has always been non judge mental loving and the perfect grandmother. Not tryna completely shit on my moms mom because she gave us a great childhood but growing up learning my family business shit starts to be revealed in reality she has a lot of faults when my dads mom has none at all when you think of a loving grandma my dads mom picture should be right beside that definition.
