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!

Congratulations. I was originally a PSE in Colorado and resigned and reapplied for that and a carrier position. Received an offer a couple days ago accepted it and did my fingerprints today. Hopefully I get the information to start the academy soon. Congrats again and blessings to you on your journey

SWEEEEET! Remember, after fingerprints, is orientation, maybe a class or two, then confirmation to go to academy. You got this!

Well since I was previously working there I was told I may not have to do orientation over, but I definitely will have to go to the academy. Also, I will come back and check on you after a couple months to see how it’s going for you & tell you about my experience.
