Mail-Management-Services

It is pretty easy, boring, work. 
You load up in the morning, deliver the mail, have a layover for a few hours (for no pay), then do the route in reverse order to pick up the outgoing mail and come back to the plant in Amarillo.

They are pretty unforgiving about being late, sometimes even if you have a reasonable excuse. The post offices can make you late though with no consequence or explanation.
The postal employees you interact with can get away with doing or saying about anything to you, while the drivers are always on thin ice. People are generally pretty stressed out and stand-offish, so it takes some getting used to. It is a strange and demoralizing environment at times.

Amarillo management is very disorganized and uncaring. You will never get a consistent schedule for when anyone has a day off. You will get texted randomly in the middle of the night and asked if you want the next day off, so you will rarely have advanced warning, and wont have time to make any plans.
 It is next to impossible to maintain a relationship or have a very normal life like this.

This really creates unnecessary chaos for relief drivers. Sometimes Amarillo management will completely forget to tell you that you are working the next day, so the next morning no one will show up at all for the route. 
When this happens, you will be expected to show up on a moments notice even if it is your day off to clean up their mistake. This also means you have to take all the flak from the angry postal workers along your route for being late, even though its not your fault.
Its very unprofessional, but common.

If you ever do have a problem you feel like you are completely on your own. Going to management with problems seems to only lead to gossip and drama, so you really cant do anything but keep to yourself and hope for the best.
 As I said, the postal employees dont care about you, Amarillo management doesnt care, and corporate cares the least of all. 
They try to make it sound like they care, but their actions consistently reveal otherwise. So youre kindof trapped on all sides.

The pay is decent for Amarillo (not saying much), but it feels like the only people that stick around for long dont have much going on. It could work for some, just be aware if you have kids or something.

Everyday is my favorite day with this employer. The customers that is served are diverse. They come from all walks of life. Many of them are friendly, other's not really, but as Operations Supervisor turn Manager, it is our responsibility to ensure that every customer that leaves the window, leaves with a smile along with excellent customer service that is unmatched. The management team are dynamic. I have no other way of describing them. They are there all the way from start to finish. The hardest part of this job is making sure that you are 100% accurate all the time. There is no room for error. You must be at your best at all times and have the ability to multitask without forgetting the duties and responsibilities required of you. The enjoyable part of my job is that customers are satisfied with service provided to them and this I feel is the most enjoyable and rewarding part of my job.

Before hiring they didn't make it clear it's a split shift with no guaranteed hours. You will arrive at work between midnight and 5am, work for 3-4 hours, be stuck in a small town for 4-8 hours without getting paid, then drive back for  3-4 hours. They pay is good but it's because they'll strand you in the middle of nowhere every day. The routes are random so you'll always be tired, you're expendable and abusable, especially if you say you have open hours, I highly recommend against telling them you have an open schedule. They will bully you into taking shifts you don't want. They also like to talk about their conservative politics way too much. Drivers now have a camera on them when driving and are micromanaged.

I have been working at MMS for 5 months now and have enjoyed every minute of it. They have given me many opportunities to challenge myself, and in my position, plenty of time to travel to different locations throughout the states, while always checking to make sure my work balance and home life are kept intact. I have not seen any closed doors in MMS, meaning that you can call anybody from the local management team or home office anytime of the day or night to get any questions answered. The support staff that they are building to support all parts of the business is un heard of any company that I have, or my spouse has heard of. This company is growing at a fast pace in very intelligent ways. Look forward to retiring with this company.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Trying to keep the schedule during rush hour traffic 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Show up and do a pretrip on vehicle and check in with post office dock worker. Load the mail that was going out at that time. secure trailer and then start route. Deliver the mail and then return to main post office and reload if needed.

I have worked for the USPS subsidiary for five years and in all that time I have worked they have treated me fair. It is a easy steady paced job driving the box truck even through traffic hour. we take monthly training programs through mms to learn and observe proper traffic law. You will also be working for the USPS directly delivering their mail from around the city to the main distributing plant. Working directly with USPS and its customers is a rewarding experience.
