    4:30 Postmaster or supervisor actually admitting that what a city carrier does is HARD WORK. Every one of these dirtbags I've ever encountered thinks it's easy and we take to long.

    7am to 5pm? Unless it's Christmas there's no way the post office allows that much overtime. Also if they come in at 7 and don't leave the office until 10 then they must be slow as dirt casing mail. The post office I work at you show up at 8 and leave no later than 10 (unless you gotta double case) and then be back by 4:30. That's an 8 hour day. Granted not every day is like that, but that's what it should be.

    And in order to save money, the carriers are given anywhere from 30 minutes to multiple hours of extra work on another route and are expected to do that AND their own route in the 8 hr time frame. Supervision claims it doesn't take any longer and will have disciplinary hearings, your "day in court" that call it, if you take any longer than 8 hrs to do more than 8 hrs of work. Only the letter carriers are subjected to this practice termed "pivoting". It's an every day argument based on flawed mail counting procedures

      That's the sad part about it. I have 4 1/2 hours of P/L and 2 hours of NDCBU. All our routes in our zone have 7.15 hours street time. This is due to route adjustment a few years back where we don't have much mail. But now, the volume is way too much for our routes.

      Obviously you working in a small ass town delivering to a resident of trailer park communities if you cast mail for a full route in an hour. Most casing takes 2 and a half to 3 hours to cast, and I worked in two different postal stations to know that.
      There's no way you casing mail for a full route under an hour. That's like one piece of mail for every slot. Out here in Texas, we start off casting mixed mail addressee for up to an hour and a half.
      Then a 2nd volume of mail where it's in order from your 1st stop to your last stop. And it takes about another hour to cast those.
      But if you doing a regular size route, and getting your casting in under an hour, I'd like to know how you casting it that fast??
