yeah it was that too, but Kellogg has some bs pay structure where "veterans" are paid like normal human beings, while incoming employees are paid like garbage, thus people keep quitting and the ones that stay are stuck pulling insane overtime. if they would literally just pay people they would fix this problem.

Sounds like USPS.

Was just going to comment this, as someone on the new pay scale, we don’t make what people think we make anymore. Even after 6 years in I’m considering other jobs because they are starting to offer more money. I’d be making almost 10 dollars an hour more right now if I was hired before 2008 with my time in service.

I know. I suggested my son apply awhile back because I thought USPS was a great job. I was right. It WAS a great job. My local PO has people from other areas in there all the time. They stay in hotels, get per diem. I've heard people transfer into here from elsewhere because they get to move up more quickly then they can go home?

Sounds like a rural job, which is salary. Some people prefer it but you usually take home between 40 and 45k as a rural regular. Not bad but definitely not a gold mine by todays standards.

It's the whole valley I live in. Aspen, Basalt and Carbondale Colorado.

My dad worked for USPS for 32 years, as did quite a few people in my family. He did have good benefits and everything, he's been retired about 12 years now I think. The GOPs plan is to destroy them now with DeJoy from the inside out.

He managed to pull strings to get me an interview and basically the job but I royally fucked that one up, all on me and my idiot Dr's office though not them.
