~Careers On Delivery~
This article is about teenagers that have jobs after high school and they have full-time jobs. There's this guy name Bory's Dudar, he has been working in a post office ever since 1935, and still today he works at a post office branch. The starting pay for a USPS is typically in the mid $20,000s.

What Jobs Are Available
This section talks about 80 percent of all jobs in the USPS require a application that you have to pass an entrance exam, which tests memory and coding and addresses.(You have to remember a lot.) The Carrier delivers have to pick up the mail on foot or vehicles. The mail processing clerk has to operate and monitors the automated mail that process the mail and sorts the mail out. The mail handler has to load and unload mails from trucks or boxes. And the sales, service, and distribution associate has to provides direct sales and customers services.

Seeking Promotion
This last section talks about a girl name Alicia Tutt, she workers at a post office that she began part-time in a distribution in 1992. She says that her family pretty much worked at post office also. After 10 months or so she applied to become a mail carrier. She also says that delivering mail gives her a chance to interact with the customers and get a chance to get outside instead of getting stuck in a office all day. (I would like to stay in an office.) Than she returned to college to finish a degree and hopes to move into working with the USPS again and becoming a marketing position.
