    I know I’m a little late when you made this video but extremely helpful. I convert to a regular rural carrier next week. I know I’ll be the lowest person on the totem pole when it comes to seniority but I’m grateful to only take 4 years to convert when it might take an RCA 10 years or more.

    I just converted.!! And I sweetly got a bid similar to what I have now, I just start an hour later. My effective date (1st day on my bid) is the 31st of this month. (NYE) talk about starting the New Year on the right foot.!! You are a huge part of my journey. You’ve provided me with so much knowledge to get this far.!! You’ve been there from me being a CCA to resigning from that…to now from a PSE to a CLERK at my distribution Facility. I’ve had a great opportunity of being an expeditor and I’m just gna wait for opening bids to bid for that.! That’s one thing I love about the Post office, is that it allows you to grow. You just have to be motivated and love what u do, like I do. All your hard work does pay off. Thanks for your willingness of teaching people everything that u knw. I wish you a Happy New Year and May God continue to Bless you with many more years of good health, wealth and success.! 🎉❤🥂💰💵💪🏽

    Definitely was forced to take a Tour 1 bid when I converted (1030pm to 7am). And I was on Tour 3 (3pm to 1130pm). It’s taking some time to get used to because I haven’t worked overnight in 10 years but I’ll be good.

    I have a question? I have my CDL A but I don't have my endorsements other than my Passenger. Now, I am on the pre-hire list for CCA in NJ., but next month the CCA designation is being changed in NJ to career. Okay, having said that, I mentioned earlier that I have my CDL A, but I have zero experience other than driving a large 20-person Para Transit vehicle. Do you think I should take a CDL A refresher course or should I take the CCA/Career job, work my 90-days, and then try to re-apply for a MVO/TTO position(s) as they become available? Does the USPS hire from within like UPS? I worked for them only seasonally and to get a job with them is almost impossible especially in my area. My area is strictly connections so getting a job here is a waste of time.
    After much thought, I decided on USPS and since I have my CDL A, but I applied for the entry-level CCA position, but I had to resign my position because I got pneumonia. I was sick for more than three weeks and I thought I had Covid. Even my doctor did, and decided to resign my position and they accepted that. Having said that, I am okay now and reapplied to USPS and was placed on a pre-hire list. And as of now it's a waiting game. Furthermore, as for my original question regarding my CDL A what do you think I should do? Thank you again and I find your videos to be very inspirational.

    A year ago this wouldn't have made a lot of sense. But, as I commented on another video of yours, I'm being converted in September. I'm 3rd on the list, and will be bidding for a department that most people don't like the type of work and tour.
    As an APBS PSE, I've been Tour 1. It works for me. The NDO (I think I got that right) congratulated me and hoped that I bid for my current operation as there are several openings. I think I'll get the opening I want to begin with. Maybe not the days off that would be ideal, but it should be a good, solid start to my career. She even suggested I may want to bid on an EXPEDITER job. I have almost 20 years of shipping/receiving/warehousing experience. I'm motivated by acheiving those dayly deadlines. I'll look into it. Most people don't last at that position, so I need to investigate a little more as to why there's a high turnover rate. But it does pay a little more than my entry MPC position would to start.
    I really appreciate your videos.

    they can always put in a change of schedule for up to 3 months if the supervisor approve. also usually when they get converted in a plant and there’s no bid for a plant they give you a residual bid to the station meaning they automatically assign that bid to you. now you have to pass that station test or you will be converted back to a pse or let go. you can put in a different bid from the one they assign you in that time your are training but like jay said you get what nobody wants usually you gotta just keep bidding every cycle and cross your fingers

    It's not even about money. It's about your mental health, physical health, and your emotional health working at the post office.
    ITS LIKE WHEN YOU FIRST JOIN THE MILITARY?
    Are you Equipped ?? Mentally, Physically, and Emotionally?
    Well don't look at Jay H ?
    Don't stare at me Mr. Edward Lee Raven?
    What are your plans?
    You've succeeded through Orientation.
    You've succeeded through whatever craft you're excelling through on your journey....OR perhaps you've switched....resigned....And you're on another SUCCESSFUL journey like myself....This is my TESTIMONY.....YES !!!!! I've experienced some challenges but I've been in communication with my superiors and I'm still STRONG....But instead of me asking a lot of questions....I rather tell my experiences so that my experiences can perhaps HELP or BLESS the next person that's facing the same experience that I am seeing ya feel me....All individuals do in our Era is ASK QUESTIONS.
    STOP 🛑 ASKING QUESTIONS AND RESEARCH THE ANSWER FOR YOURSELF. #IDID
    I'm at PEACE. If I could hold a convention and just give everyone that views Mr. Jay H's channel....I would. I truly would.
    And tell you all as humorous as I am in real life, motivated each and every day GOD wakes me up....to serve my community.
    Mannnnnnnnnnnnn. I would @Jay H.
    Since I first started, And I saw your testimonials sir, I plan to meet you before I leave this Earth. I appreciate your service sir.
    I love you. I thank you. 🤜🤛✊👊
