A temporary employee (TE), which is the only type of employee being hired at this time due to the hiring freeze, starts at around $17 per hour with very few benefits, works up to 39 hours per week, and is called in on all scheduled days off, including vacation days ("vacation" being the term for the time the TE is fired between years of service). A TE is "fired" once a year, and "rehired" a week therealter, if an individual manager chooses to do so, for another year.
A 30-year veteran of the postal service earns upwards of $27-29 per hour with full benefits. Managers of stations make upwards of $90-$100,000 per year. That being said, let me say that they also receive bonuses that are considerable. Which could be considered illegal.
