Where are you guys getting your info from?

Oh and heres a question or two for you.....
on average, how many houses does a letter carrier deliver to each day? and what does he/she do when they have to use the bathroom? i'm curious....

they find a washroom to use. gas station or coffee shop would do.

no serious, that doesnt happen in a residential area, its all houses for blocks and blocks around here. I mean do they piss on the lawn like a dog.

They are carrying a bag or two of mail on therr back, maybe they are more like mules. No intelligence required just wandering aimlessly around dropping letters in mailboxes.

I wonder who actually sorts that mail and puts it in the order of delivery, surely not the poor letter carrier, he could never figure that out.

well i guess if you have an emergency you can knock on someone's house. don't they have cars? they can just hop in and head off to the nearest gas station.

Yes, some routes are motorized, most aren't.

My neighbor is a letter carrier. He tells me they get very good breaks throughout their day, they have their route planned, scheduled and mapped out for them completely. At any given time of day, the head office should be able to tell exactly where he'll be on his route.

I know the MM that does my street comes down the block at about 2 pm every day like clockwork.

Here they are in the $40k/year bracket. Guys working there for many years make more than that. And all the careers I mentioned earlier are all in the $40 - $50k bracket here as well.

Garbagemen also do a job that is an essential service, and I hear they make a pretty good buck too. Should a garbageman make as much as a nurse? Frankly, I have to say no fucking way, but the reality is... they do in many areas.
