Management sucks. Union rep is a joke and there are to many people related to each other working up there. Not only that but no one is held accountable for not showing up for work when im there every day but when I take a day off it seems like its an issue.

Senior citizens. You might be their only interaction but they rarely demand anything, they just want 2 minutes of your time and leave with a smile.
Worst thing
90% of our customer base are people who are living in the fast lane and have no idea how the world works. You have to pay for a service. If you want the cheapest services your going to get the bare minimum and I can't fix that after the fact when something goes wrong.

Best thing
It’s pretty simple when you know what to do, whether you’re taught or you pick it up as you go. Everyone is nice whether they’re my coworkers, my supervisor, or customers.
Worst thing
The hours, can’t really afford much with the two hours my office gets, just adding two more hours to make it a four hour one would not only double my paycheck but making affording basic necessities easier.

If you can get into a good plant or office you can clock in and clock out meaning you do your job and then you go home.
Worst thing
Management doesn't care about you.
Your safety doesn't matter.
Health concerns.
They move us up on the tax bracket when we work overtime so they can take more of our money.
If you get hurt it's always blamed on you and they don't fix the issues.
Communication is so bad you never know what is happening unless if it's gossip.
It is near impossible as a newly converted employee to change my schedule to something I can manage better.Mail handler at the United States Postal Service, March 2025
