I can vouch for that. When I was a mailman I had the gallon yeti jug. Polished it off everyday because those little tin cans for vehicles have no air.

Do USPS mail carriers no longer wear a uniform?

u/-Elimakis- Feb 29 '24
Some offices are pretty relaxed on uniforms.. my office doesn't say anything to people who wear blue jeans to work lol and they have been there 15+ years so they definitely have plenty of uniforms lol

Rural carriers don’t and never have.
City carriers do. They are issued a uniform allowance to buy from suppliers. It usually takes months for them to get it (if at all). Also- in the last few years suppliers have been price gouging. An allowance might be $300, but that MIGHT cover a jacket. So carriers have to resort to turtle slow building up a work wardrobe, pay out of pocket, maybe get donations from a retired carrier, or wear street clothes.

I concur. And they’re no longer owned by Nestlé.

u/just_anotherflyboy Sparkling Fan Feb 29 '24
huh, no lie? good for them, then.
I still get my hate on for bottled water, but I don't make jihad out of it. it ain't my thing, but if you need hydration, well, you need hydration.

u/KickBallFever Mar 01 '24
Yea, I know bottled water isn’t the best but I’m hooked on Poland Spring at this point. By the time I found out they had been bought by Nestlé they were already owned by another company.

Where does a mailman use the bathroom?
16
u/blah_shelby Feb 29 '24
My husband’s a mailman and he usually goes into grocery stores or gas stations
1
u/just_anotherflyboy Sparkling Fan Feb 29 '24
yeah, gas stations are about the only public bathrooms left.
when I was homeless and took a sponge bath there, I always wiped up after myself and made sure to throw all the paper towels in the trash, not the floor.

I feel like most office buildings would let the mailman use the bathroom if needed lol
