Amazon has ruined the post office, the stupidest thing USPS did was not charging Amazon for USPS to deliver Amazons packages. Amazon offers free delivery for most orders to their subscribers then dishes all the packages to USPS for them to deliver. If the post office was charging amazon a set rate per package delivered the post office would have seen some of the billions amazon has been profiting the last how many years. The post office delivers more packages than UPS, Fedex, and Amazon combined and is the only organization that will deliver to every address in America, tell me how the post office doesnt have more money for the work they do . Amazon should have to pay per package for delivery of their packages just like any other customer using the post office and we wouldnt be in this mess and carriers would be getting some of that Jeff Bozos money instead of receiving pay cuts after years of delivering all of Amazons packages.
All the money they make from what you just described goes into all the guaranteed benefits for all USPS employees that fedex or ups employees do not get. Most people don’t realize that the only reason why USPS is “bankrupt” or in debt is because the federal government makes the company set aside guaranteed funds for currrent AND FUTURE employee.
The problem with Amazon it’s the Sunday Amazon delivery we do. Get rid of that and it would be fine. We can’t keep rural carriers. No one wants to work 7 days a week.
Good to see someone local. I'll be going to Cleveland, TN PO as an RCA. I'll be coming to Chattanooga for orientation when my fingerprints and orientation date comes back.
@@Theangrymailman I find it interesting carriers from different parts of this country handle different volumes of certain packages. Some of my coworkers are fed up seeing so much Temu day after day.
The problem with amazon is we deliver it everyday so by the time Wednesday Thursday Friday come... people are in ot or penalty time and amazon doesn't pay that, the post office does so we lose so much money because of that. The usps doesn't charge the correct amount for us to deliver Amazon's stuff. I've never worked at a place where another company determines our work flow day in and day out
I delivered a lot of packages yesterday. It hasn’t dwindled down yet. It’s always roller coaster with packages last week for my route. Two weeks ago, packages were low which was pretty nice for me. I am dreading for tmw. 😢
Rural carrier routes would all be H routes working 6 days a week…..Deliver Amazon since 2014 in Illinois. Rural carriers not allowed under any circumstance to switch crafts.
If the post office can create a shipping method that is $2-4 for small packages, small business will contract with us. The number 1 complaint I see as a customer connect is “ my product cost $8 to make, why would I ship it for $4 . Fix that and you have a new and untapped revenue stream.
Depends on the city. Major cities or high cost living areas have no one. Certain post offices have seniority lists with people over half way up the list with only 5 years. The whole point is to flood areas with mail carriers eventually eliminating OT.
Amazon started delivering here late January, some days more than others…..it’s nice not being so overwhelmed. I don’t think any office will lose 100% Amazon, we will take the overflow
I would guess "Amazon sundays" wouldnt be a thing, our delivering efficiency would go up, our customer relations would be better. This past sunday we got the usual amount of amazon to deliver... then about 8am an amazon truck shows up with over 800 packages and they claimed it was for that sunday... But the static list was already sent and most of the carriers trucks loaded, warming their vehicles. So, this monday, today, those +800 amazon packages will have to be delivered INCLUDING what already was posted to be delivered from amazon for monday deliveries (which on a monday is usually between 400-600 amazon packages for 74 routes)
In detroit we still got Amazon, seeing more temu, but I believe with more companies going on the internet we should be OK some body got to deliver these packages from online stores
Seeing more TEMU at my office, too. Can't tell if package volume is up or if they're simply making our Sun. routes longer to have less carriers scheduled, but the last few Sundays have been heavy. A full Sun. route used to be around 75-85 stops at my office. Last week was 96, and today was either 101 or 102. Those 15-20 extra packages seem to add disproportionally more loading time (usually 3 hampers instead of 2) and also make it significantly more difficult to organize the truck.
@@Theangrymailman50% is not because the costumer are not buying is that changes in transportation isn't working properly, remember all the changes in processing
That election mail has been giving us so much OT. As for Amazon, I heard post office makes like 2 bucks per package. And Walmart, I saw that drop in terms of volume at my plant. I'm a mail handler.
I'd avoid CCA altogether and apply right to a "Career with Benefits'posting. Lot of bigger offices are offering that now, you start as a PTF but still have to rank up to "Regular"
That’s great news if amazon can deliver there own products and not give to the post offices companies are going to have to find ways to have there’s stuff like using ups or fed ex
@@Theangrymailman it wouldn’t make sense to stay without benefits at the current pay rates. In your opinion would the union still exist in a private usps ?
Here in Oklahoma, we ought to be called “United States Amazon Services.”
😂😭😂😭

Here in NYC we get almost equal amounts of Amazon, Walmart and Temu. I see a good amount of those orange and white packages daily lol.
We don’t get much temu at all and ZERO Wal mart

Waukegan, IL
We still deliver Amazon on Sundays

Arkansas has amazon. My daily load is 2 to 3x heavier than my pre amazon Christmas load. There has to be another way. It's too much.
Amazon slowed down after Xmas but now we are getting hammered everyday by them again !
Everybody's getting their tax check. 😂
We are still super low. It’s actually really weird but nice 😂
That would be great 👍 😊
For some people! Not for everyone.

We had temu , Walmart, and target contract and lose em
Here in Albuquerque they have so many ccas that they barely get 20 hours. They take our overtime to give it to them.
Thats the plan unfortunately
Yea that seems to be what they are doing with less volume now!
😮 glad i didnt accept a job offer out that way! plus rent is redic!
Come to Wyoming all the overtime you could ever want!!

How much does it cost us in our labor based of of the rate we charge them we are losing money with the amazon account 👌

Yea we have lost a good bit. It seems we’ve lost sprs more than anything.

That is true. There will always be people ordering online. But I’d say we’ve lost 50 percent of our parcels since january!

@@runningsigI had 3 pumpkins and two full hampers of spurs yesterday…nearly cried when I walked in…
Amazon will not be leaving the po we do it for so cheap and they have unreliable employees
I do agree with lots of that. But their infrastructure is so much better than ours that they are just doing it themselves in most places now.
World Peace? 😂 jkjk

The pentagon been losing money forever.
Get rid of Amazon Sunday and move it to Monday. Advo day Tuesday and wed-sat mail delivery.
We have Amazon in Florida a lot
As they continue to grow their vehicle fleet you’ll probably lose it soon. Most the country now they deliver themselves.
We only get 1.25 a package how cheap is the leadership in usps we getting slammed with Amazon
Im in Lancaster California
Does that 6 year of service include Cca time?
No
I'd avoid CCA altogether and apply right to a "Career with Benefits'posting. Lot of bigger offices are offering that now, you start as a PTF but still have to rank up to "Regular"
If we get rid of Amazon it will be no overtime
Not a lot of people will be complaining. Will lead to a hiring freeze but shrugging my shoulders.
Get rid of Amazon they destroyed the usps
It's not going to happen.
It is in a lot of places right now.
All carriers would be back in 3 hrs & you’d be crying cause you’d be out a job
Income and hiring freeze but every career employee would still be employed at least till the next contract negotiations.
No Amazon Sunday. Big whoop.
Celebrate good times, come on . . . . time for a celebration ! ! ! (Hot tub party at my house)
That’s great news if amazon can deliver there own products and not give to the post offices companies are going to have to find ways to have there’s stuff like using ups or fed ex
how about UPS Sunday instead? oh shii...
I think a lot of CCAs would be happy lol but it would effect a lot more then Sundays.
Quit crying & GET THE DAMN MAIL UP & out !!
What would happen if the post office goes private? @angrymailman
That’s a good question. I doubt we would have the benefits we have now!
@@Theangrymailman it wouldn’t make sense to stay without benefits at the current pay rates. In your opinion would the union still exist in a private usps ?
@@armando4509 UPS has teamsters with a private sector so I’d say yes!
DeJoy will ruin it more than he already has and probably loose pensions
@@Theangrymailman UPS has better pay and benefits than the post office
