Hello! My name is Amanda. Thank you so much for checking out this video! I appriciate your support so so much. I hope that in some way I have helped.
I'm a Midwest USA woman trying to live the dream. I'm going back to school for teaching actually :)
After my ankle issues, I'm limited with what I can do physically, so I started streaming games on Twitch and playing with Makeup more. If you want to catch up with me on other socials, below is where to find me.

I'm 7yrs in, I could have told you about the makeup, ...It doesn't work with the Post office while being a CCA, when you turn regular then we can talk makeup, nails etc. As for your feet, you need to purchase Wide feet shoes, and insoles, (really good insoles), Welcome to the Postal Family.

@thatsjustnuts 2 года назад

I know you no longer work for the Post Office, their loss. But I just wanted to thank you for making these videos. Your down to earth and you gave the information I needed. All the other postal RU-vidrs talk about is the pay and hours. I found your channel the morning of my shadow day, I was so nervous, but your videos helped me and I'm sticking to it. So thank you, I hope you still see comments for these videos. I also hope your doing well.

@@FranticPandaTTvHi! I’m a new subscriber to your channel and I love your videos! But I just read that you aren’t a CCA anymore. It seems to me that you fitted perfectly for that position (sorry if I make spelling mistakes because English isn’t my first language) I just sent my Driver License info to USPS to continue with the hiring process but I’m hesitating about it now 😅Since a lot of people say that it’s a very hard work. Anyway, may ask you why you quit your position? Thank you for your time and your kindness. Many blessings to you and your family 🙏🏼

@williamwerner1570 5 лет назад

Hi, I found this video very helpful. Today I received an email letting me know my orientation starts on Monday. I am very excited and have been waiting for this moment for over two months. The problem I have is that this gives me no time to put in a proper two weeks notice. I was curious if you ran into this situation and if so what you did. In the email there was a number of a few people to call with any questions and I was going to see if I could push back the orientation but at the same time I don't want to cause a problem right out of the gate. I look forward to reading your response and to more of your videos about being a CCA as they are very helpful

@FranticPandaTTv 5 лет назад

William Werner hey there!! Thank you for checking out my videos! I too did not receive a full 2 week notice. I personally didn’t like my last job, so I didn’t blink. I know that sounds bad- but there is a HUGE reason why. The way I see it, USPS is a career - it’s something I can be proud of doing, be more healthy, make more money, and be able to retire from. I didn’t want to let that chance go. It’s a gamble yes, but if you try and do good, you don’t have to worry. You just have to be willing to be sore, be tired, be frustrated, and growing.

@FranticPandaTTv 5 лет назад

As long as your spouse is understanding that there is a light at the end of the tunnel it will be ok. Some people like to keep their spouse on a short leash. You may work 12 hour days 6 days a week. It is tough, but when you get regular after 1-3 years you will be able to do "route only"

@buraddo79 5 лет назад

@@FranticPandaTTv Once getting regular, do you have Sunday's off? Also, I have often heard that they essentially force you to lie about not having enough time to delivery packages by scanning them "inaccessible," when really the issue is not enough drivers/time. Have you dealt with this much? Thanks for your reply. I was offered a job, but I'm still hesitating to pull the trigger. I figured it is better to not accept at first than to go through hiring and then quit. I want to commit to whatever I do.

@FranticPandaTTv 4 года назад

The hardest part for me was parcels and flats - trying to remember where they go when I got there. I was so frazzled at first. Once I learned the routes it was so much easier to remember when and where I will have a package. It just took time. Now I write the house number on the top of the packages in my bag and put them in order when I need to grab them.

Pre-hiring list essentially means you're on the list for an interview with the post master of the office you applied. If you pass through the interview, and made a good impression, you'll see yourself move to the hiring list, that's basically the list the post master sends HR, for who they would prefer to hire, based on the interview. Then from there, you may be put on a selection list. That's the step im at now, still waiting on the drug & background emails though.

Hello! I was wondering how many hours a CCA gets and, how long it took you to get a start date after your fingerprints/background check cleared?

@blandon2042 3 года назад

CCA’s get abused and work over 50 hours a week at most stations. Most CCA’s quit because of poor management. They don’t care if you’re tired or if you have something personal to do. 90 day probation no call out or accidents. No benefits, just a very high health insurance premium option until you complete 2 yrs (at least) and convert to a “career employee”, that’s when you start accumulating towards a federal pension and TSP (aka 401k). Some are still CCA’s at 5 years without federal benefits. Just something to think about.
