With July 4 come and gone, I had to deal with the annoying phenomenon in which the day after the holiday has double mail. Two days worth of mail tied into one--yeah, it's not too bad, considering Mondays are always like that--but to have two Monday-esque work days in one week? Ew. Not to mention three routes were down because people took the day off for obvious reasons.
Long story short, I was placed on a newly modified route that I've never done before and then was given at least two hours of mail from another route I've never done before. Oh joy!
12.5 hours later, I finished. And was exhausted big time.
I do believe this was my longest workday so far with the post office. Hopefully no more days similar to this one come in the near future because my patience surely was tested. I'd almost rather trade in my July 4 day off for an easy workday than have a ridiculously long workday the day after.
Oh well, here's to hoping today is much, much better!
