      That's the thing about having a union though and some of the newer carriers are not taking advantage of it. According to the agreement between USPS and the Union you can not be forced to work over 12 hours a day or 60 hours a week so if you work 12 hours a day for 5 days that would be 60 hours so you can take two days off, whatever your off day is that week plus Sunday.

    He’s great. I think they should pay his mother more though - he mentioned that she’s still struggling and if she’s taking care of his kid while both parents are at work, they’re benefiting greatly and can afford to give her more than $100/month.

    I feel like this was one of the more honest stories. With that being said, I always wonder what the retirement savings look like when there are separate finances. Ie, I know he said he’ll be a millionaire well before retirement, but do they get together to make sure they are both putting money away for the long term? I’ll probably never know the answer to that question but that’s what I think of.
