Any /carriers/ here? I’ve accepted a conditional offer to be a PTF city carrier in a besotted urban hub in the upper South and idk what to expect. I’m 6’3, 220lbs—fairly fat, problem drinker, heavy cigarette smoker, but I can easily walk 20 hilly miles a day with a 50lb messenger bag and don’t mind the heat. And I can clean myself up if needed. Is this a good job pour moi? Considering I don’t have a CDL and don’t know how to code or anything about any trade obviously. And not particularly worried about braving dog-rich urban neighborhoods. I love rednecks and I love black people

The best tip I can give you is try to to stay in the "goldilocks" zone. That means you dont deliver too slowly, but not too quickly either.Also, it was my experience that management vastly preferred speed to being careful. I got way less shit for being sloppy and fast than for being careful and slow. I would say 75% speed and 25% care is about the right ratio. Its easy to do it right though, honestly.Ask me anything else you want

Like I said though, pretend to care more until probation is done. They WILL drop you for little shit until that point.After probation you are almost bullet proof. Union can get you out of nearly any fuck up you can imagine at that point.And be nice to people's dogs. That helps. Those little creatures were the only bright part of my day out there.
