Some of you might not know this- but your address might be rural. Even if you live in the city. Rural mail carriers are quitting in mass.
More and more is being put on their shoulders and they can’t do it anymore. They have to supply and maintain their own vehicles in most cases. They are salaried. With reevaluation- many lost thousands in Pay and bringing them close to level with 15$ an hour after their vehicles are done.
It was another 89° day, and wonderfully sunny. In the car it’s again: 104° …. With 8 rural carriers gone they are telling the city carriers (most who WALK their routes) to go as fast as possible with their routes (keep in mind the temperature). Many of these city carriers already have routes stuck on top of their own.
Please be kind and support your local mail carrier. Some of you will start noticing that your mail might not come as regularly here soon. They are being effed harder than most without any lube.
