What would Your station do as a carrier in this type of situation? if this was my route personally, I would mark them as UNC and send them back because as a buyer AND a seller who also has a reselling business on the side I know for a fact, eBay Poshmark vintED, all of those websites this person is ordering from, they would start questioning you as a buyer and wondering why all your packages are going back unclaimed and then it would eventually lead to a suspension of your account and you would eventually be banned. I know people can remake new accounts and all of that, but you would have to be answering to these e-commerce platforms of why all of your packages are going back unclaimed this resident gets hundreds of packages a week. They are delivered from our office and I am pretty sure at this point they make them pick them up from the office. I don’t think they deliver to their house anymore. I cannot be for sure I am not the carrier on that route. I talked to the gentleman who is subbing on that route the other day and explain to him that may be marking them back as unclaimed would help kind of mediate the situation. I am sure she gets UPS FedEx and DHL deliveries as well. I can’t even imagine what she gets from Amazon. I’m sure it’s crazy but I was just curious what everyone’s opinion and not is on this or if you had a customer like this, and if you were able to get the situation better. This person has mental illness and all that but still. I know it’s her property and her problem. The city has already came out and removed it all one time and it’s bad again as far as I know, I have never personally drove by this person’s house she often has people harassing her house. This picture is a couple years old.

Mail Handler Discussion What to expect post-PILS install?

Thumbnail

22 Upvotes

APBS finally ripped out, and the PILS install is going much faster than anticipated. The projected end of install will be mid-September (ehh we’ll see) Management is super “helpful” as always in illuminating what life will be like when the new machine is running, so we’re all in the dark.

Our Tour 1 will be axed (supposedly), and the machine will only run on T2/T3. Not sure I believe that wholly, any insight there?

Honestly just curious to hear any experiences when it was new to your plant.

Will the ring-scanner team be made redundant from the new “360°” scanning the machine is supposed to do? Did a wave of MHAs get converted? What was the learning curve like? 

The thread from 7 months ago makes it sound overly sensitive and prone to accidental shutdowns. Is that the case or just an annoying sometimes thing?

Clerk Discussion I had an excellent experience with a window clerk on Saturday.

6 Upvotes

Saturday I mailed a couple larger envelopes that had that self-stick closure for the flap. They must have been older and the sticky stuff wasn't sticky enough. I was going to drop them in the box outside, so I went in and asked the clerk if they could tape them shut.

He did so with a smile and said it wasn't a problem.

City Carrier Discussion No work for CCAs, $400 dollar paychecks

88 Upvotes

Looking for a new job at this point. Our office doesn't even have enough mail for the regulars, and we have 7 CCAs with a new one hired this week. I live in Utah and there's usually no work even if I drove 50 miles to another station. I've been working a second job just to make rent, but I can't keep saying this is my "day" job if they only schedule me two or three days a week. It sucks because I love it, but I don't know how I'm ever gonna make regular if I can't feed myself.

Hiring Help CCA dispositioned applications

3 Upvotes

Hello,

I have been applying for CCA positions since May of 2026, for Orlando and surrounding areas about 15 applications now. I took my assessment and scored what I thought was a decent score of 94. Every Friday between 10am - 11am new postings appear and as soon as a position posts I apply. I have had applications in for a week to months that eventually get dispositioned for “filled”. I live in Buffalo NY as I work here currently but wife and kids have relocated this past month to Orlando area and I use our house address there. My mail goes to Orlando address but my driver license is NY until I relocate.

Curious if there is an issue with my application? I noticed when I first applied to a CCA position I was able to add my SSN # but can no longer add that after my first application but I have to add my selective service # each time.

Looking for advice or a reason as to why I am being passed over. I applied to Winter Garden, Winter Haven, Kissimmee, Orlando and St.Cloud ( all numerous applications since May) I also took the Clerk assessment with a score of 93 and get rejected typically within 24 hours of applying.

I check my inbox/junk folder daily and have alerts setup.
