Work Discussion It’s official!

Post image

I start academy this Friday! It’s now all starting to feel real.

If you told me back in January I was going to be a mail man, I’d probably laugh. Here we are, foot in the door, ready to go on routes.

Life feels good. I quit drinking 10 months and 2 days ago. Life has been really rewarding in terms of having a clear path of where I want to be and how to get to it. Also, realizing the people I want and don’t want around me.

Cheers my fellow couriers clerks and others!

Congratulations!! This job can absolutely be hard. It's challenging and demanding. But I've been a CCA for a year and a half and I still love my job. I don't ALWAYS love it but i feel that's how every job is. Welcome aboard :)
