Ironically, three weeks ago I went out to get the mail. In the mailbox was a letter with snowflakes on the envelope. Upon opening it, I discovered a Christmas card. We live in Ohio and the person who sent it lives, 25 minutes by car, in Ohio. The postmark was in February in Atlanta, Georgia and took 3 months to reach us from Atlanta. For this we pay for a postal increase? My cousin has sent in payments for phone and other bills that never arrived and are still missing. This is a sign of the state we are in: we reward inferior work and ineptitude. No one wants to work. No one takes pride in their job. No one is paid based on real performance, so why bother to do a good job? No one is promoted based on performance, rather promotion is based on being in the good old boys’ club and keeping your mouth shut, DEI, conformity. Until this changes, we will be a failing nation. It is pervasive in all areas. I saw it in the health care arena also.
What a story. Also, remember when you had the same postal delivery person? You actually got to know them. Then it was changed to switching people out. I was told by a postal worker that that was the new policy a few years ago. I get mail for people that do not have my name but do not even have my address. I always put that kind of mail piece back in the mail system but I wonder how many people just throw it out.
I have the same mailman, accept obviously on his days off. Very friendly young man. He often brings my garbage cans up for me. It is hard to find personable workers who care about their job. He is former military and his son is now serving.
That's great. Former military are ready to do any job. There is a former army guy who works at my local supermarket and he is always working hard. No job is too big or small for him. I asked him how he was always so ready to do any job and he told me - I was in the army and we are trained to just work.
