Yeah I know that's a long ass title but yeah my manager who is in charge of my department talked to the post office about changing up the times we get mail delivered. And honestly it hasn't really been working out great IMO. It was meant to ensure that we always had mail to run on the big machine called the Eagle, and on Mondays it does seem to be working since there's less people and with it being Monday we have more mail to run on it. So at the beginning of the week we often have lots of mail to run and that means we get to stay our entire shift. However, as the week goes on the mail that the falcon operators extract gets lower and lower and when the mail does come in for the Eagle operator to extract they are pressured to get the mail extracted so that the mail that can't be ran on the Eagle can be ran on the Falcon machines. Long story short, the new mail drop really hasn't been ensuring that people have work to do. Saturdays I used to run the Eagle, but since it comes in a half and hour before I leave I don't run it anymore and that means we have less work to do on Saturdays. (I work Tuesday-Saturday.) I love this job of course so I would hate to see hours being cut and people being let go. I hope that isn't going to be the case. It's worse for the people who come in later than I do, they typically have to leave early because there's not enough work to go around for them to stay. I'm lucky enough that I work from 4 am to 12:30 pm so my shift usually has enough work to last for at least half the day.
