Thanks for your responses
deleted original message, as I really don't want to endanger a person's job . . . . . . .

No, I've never seen that. I did a quick search and found the following:
There are a number of exceptions and exclusions to the general gifts rule. Postal Service employees may accept the following items: * Snacks and beverages that are not offered as part of a meal. * Items with little intrinsic value (i.e., greeting cards, plaques, pens, coffee mugs, etc.). * Perishable items (i.e., flowers, chocolates, cookies, etc.); if the items are clearly worth more than $20, employees should share them with others in the Postal Service workplace. * Items with a market (retail) value of $20 or less. * Gifts motivated solely because of a personal relationship. * Gifts for which the employee has paid market (retail) value. * Gifts paid for by the Postal Service. Postal Service employees may not accept cash - in any amount or form (bills, checks, money orders) - from an outside source. So it sounds like they are breaking the rules by setting up a tip jar. |

I gave my carrier the allowed $20 gift this year for great service, and he really appreciated it and I was happy to do it. But to face a tip cup every time I come in for some stamps or to drop a package off? Dunno . . . seems a bit much.

Instead of being a tip jar it was probably loose change left by customers similar to what is on retail counters in many places to be used by other customers. It is highly unlikely there would be a tip jar in any Post Office. The clerks and/or local management would be on the hot seat for that one.

I'd just ignore it...hard to believe their supervisor would be okay with it though.

I do not feel that way about the carriers, they deserve every penny they get. Last edited by bnorth; 02-15-2017 at 05:39 PM. |
