I know I’m qualified, and my local post office REALLY wants me to work with them. And I was even selected as an RCA last time, but the only reason I didn’t take the job is because I didn’t have a minivan. (I have a car, not a minivan).

However, even though the LOCAL post office told me that I would be a great fit for the ARC position, the HR in Washington DC denied my application and I didn’t even get an email notifying me about it.

So I sent another application, and I decided to call HR in Washington DC. They seem kinda rude, and they flat out told me, “Hiring you is not their descision to make.”, which seems like BS to me because the LOCAL post office knows all about me, and the people in Washington DC know NOTHING about me.

What’s the secret? How do I penetrate this HR Bureaucracy?

    Got any other career paths you can reccomend me just in case working for delivery is impossible. I REALLY enjoy making deliveries and doing special errands.

      Get your CDL and get a job doing local business deliveries. Or do long haul trucking, because I believe there’s somewhat of a shortage.

      In addition to FecEx and Dominos, there’s other restaurants, Amazon, UPS, newer Chinese-owned final-mile carriers, Uber including Eats/Pets/Courier/etc., Lyft, Doordash, medical couriers, legal couriers, etc. etc. It’s tougher outside the cities, and it’s all kind of a neo-Victorian dystopia of poor wages and no support, but if what’s you actually want to do, “driving places cuz other people can’t or won’t” is a very doable job-description in the US. Just make sure you’re factoring in car expenses if you do the gig-based ones.
