But there *is* a lot of stress at the PO for the
workers right now. Anthrax threats (or any other
possible biohazard) are *very* real. We get
lectures every day about what to look for, and
our facilities are tested on a very regular
basis. While it's not going to be as common
outside of major cities (esp. NYC and Washington
DC) the chance is still there. What so many
people dont realize is that the containers from
one PO are shipped all over the country. So those
containers from NJ, NY and DC could be in your
local PO. It's not a fun time to be a postal
worker, but I still wouldn't give up my job for
anything. Despite the possible risks and definate
fear factor, I truly enjoy my job. |
