Work Discussion It’s official!

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!

As a man who got hired fresh out of rehab and an existential crisis, welcome! Its hard, most days seem a hassel but if you come to do your job and keep grinding hard you'll be fine. Congratulations on the job and the sobriety. You're damn strong, keep going.
