Rural Carrier Associate
"The main reason why someone would become a mail carrier: it pays well. The base pay is not all that exciting; you make all your money by working constantly. I often work 6 days/wk, often and 10 hrs/day. In the past 2 months, I have made over $9K (seriously). The cons are plenty: long hrs/days, having little work-life balance, stress, and inclement weather to deal with. If you can learn to roll with the punches and suck it up, the paychecks sure make it worthwhile."

Mail Carrier
in West Valley City, UT

"I found the environment there at the post office to be extraordinary, the people there were kind and they were patient in helping people become better. They were always concerned about my health as an employee, and they focused on meeting the financial needs of employees. The only thing they fell short in was efficiency, things would have run a little smoother if they had the parcels ready to go so that the mail carriers could take them out sooner."
