Check your tolerance level at the door because they didn't invent the saying "Going Postal" for nothing

They're union, it's a government job, good pay, if you don't like working outside, walking, or the weather, don't consider a mailman, hard to get in, etc.

Not sure what you're looking for, but when I worked for the Post Office I did data entry @ $14/hr. It was okay for awhile, but typing all day gets old pretty quick. Not to mention they are always having surprise quality assessments that you have to pass to keep your job.
