Dear USPS

No amount of changing or “fixing” your lobbies, prices, workplace presentation, and performance standards will fix the fact that you lack good structure and respect in the workplace. You perpetuate a poor culture by being complacent. This has been one of the most damaging, toxic places I've ever had the privilege to step foot in, and I'm in a really good office. No matter who I meet who has worked for and currently works in USPS, there is always a unanimous feel of despair or anger towards USPS. The only one's who soak it up and enjoy it are from a time before us, or they are the one's who participate in creating a toxic environment. It's rare to find someone who is even 90% happy they work for USPS, who is not a narcissist, bordering a narcissist, or who is trapped feeling like they have “to just deal with…


No amount of changing or “fixing” your lobbies, prices, workplace presentation, and performance standards will fix the fact that you lack good structure and respect in the workplace. You perpetuate a poor culture by being complacent. This has been one of the most damaging, toxic places I've ever had the privilege to step foot in, and I'm in a really good office. No matter who I meet who has worked for and currently works in USPS, there is always a unanimous feel of despair or anger towards USPS. The only one's who soak it up and enjoy it are from a time before us, or they are the one's who participate in creating a toxic environment. It's rare to find someone who is even 90% happy they work for USPS, who is not a narcissist, bordering a narcissist, or who is trapped feeling like they have “to just deal with it and everyone has to deal with it, too or they're just a bunch of weak, complainers.” These people aren't happy, they only believe they're happy and have to show it off.

It's sad when I get older, long-time employees who tell me they'd never let their kids subject themselves to this. Go to school.

The only solace I feel is knowing that I have options to leave this place and that I'm working at it. You almost made me forget that because of your way of enabling abusive tactics.

I almost fell trap to you to try to be the change you needed, but the amount of nonsense, abuse, and complacency almost made me a stereotype.

This could have been a good job. I've tried my best. I've received many compliments and dismissed them. Now, I realise it's because I tried my hardest to be me and not what this place breeds. The face of this company portrays the environment you created.

I'm in a good place, now. I'm not letting you take me away from me again. I just don't think you'll change in my time.
