Forgot to mention I made $62,130.30 in my first 11 months.

This is an excellent video. I say this because you're presenting the long game. You just slapped every short-sided person in the face with a dose of reality, and motivation to look at the bigger picture. You can be proud of the work you put in on creating this video. Good job, and thank you!

Thinking about becoming a mail carrier once my wife and i move up to Idaho in March. Your videos have really helped. Appreciate your outlook and perspective. Other peoples comments and videos had me worried it wasnt going to be as good a job as i thought. Your videos have helped clear all that up for me.

I got my CCA job at the office I wanted so I'm happy about that. Manager from my office just called to confirm that I want the job, that I'm aware I might have to lift 70 lbs ( I hope I can!) etc. Was so excited to hear from someone that I got tongue tied & probably sounded like a moron.Just waiting for orientation date.Anyway, I'm very grateful for the job but I gotta say that it kinda sucks that u have to work 12 yrs before u get that top pay. I'm 50, so I might only have 15 yrs of work left. The $ IS still fabulous especially if u don't have a college degree like me & the retirement savings plan sound fantastic! I won't have $500,000 after 15-20 yrs but I'm grateful to get what I can!have Anyway, I'm so happy to get out of deadend secretary jobs that pay nothing & many times no bennies + having to spend a fortune on work clothes! I've been trying to get into the USPS for 25 yrs & so glad I'm FINALLY in! Sorry for ling msg

Been with the po since 05. These past few years have been crazy with OT. I am the only ODL in my office. Since making top step over 5 years ago, I always make more money than our MPOO, postmaster, and supervisors. You will get there soon enough. Keep up the good work!

I just got hired as a CCA this video is motivation for me .Thank you

I'm coming back to the post office as a CCA and I can't wait. I love this video, it's time young people start talking about money and how to make it.

Start orientation tomorrow, can’t wait. Thank you for all of you videos. They take away a lot of anxiety about a new career.

Thank you Nick! Real inspiration fam, I’m glad to be apart of the USPS family

Congrats Nick. Thanks for all your videos. I just got done with orientation and I have my driving tests this week. I am really looking forward to my career at the USPS. I appreciate you.

Honestly so grateful I came across this video, everyone else is saying it’s not worth it but you’re real about it. I have orientation tomorrow so I hope I love it and can make this my career.

Haven’t made anything less than 2k net pay in a while. I love this job. A lot of regulars don’t know how good they have it.

Thank you so much for the info I'm 53 years old I've been doing minimum wage jobs for a long time on and off raising my family. My son is a freshman in high school. I want to go back to work full time. And make some real money tired of living paycheck to paycheck. You sound so happy many blessings to you.

I can't emphasize take advantage of TSP immediately because Post office will match your contributions. I know a carrier who retired with over $500,000 in his account.

I start next month as a CCA. I’m excited and praying I pass the driver training. I have goals to reach and trying to rebuild.

Thank you for making these videos, i appreciate the clear picture:) newly hired cca, so, i love the support and encouragement.

Love your videos Nick, USPS should hire you as a motivational speaker. Well Done!

Don’t forget 13 days off sick leave , 13 days off annual leave , 11 paid holidays off, that’s almost a month off work every year guaranteed and the annual leave and sick leave increases to 20 days each after 3 years and more after 15 So 50 days off paid or almost two months paid after year 3!!!! Suffer the first few years and get that RETIREMENT route Or get a easier/better job now and don’t have the security or comfort later. Sometime it’s better not to think and just do and let the universe unfold as it should.

If you’re a hard worker you’ll love making money as a cca but there’s drawbacks if you have a family. I definitely made money during the Christmas season averaging 30 hrs OT a WEEK. Shutout to my supervisor Chris in FL office as well my manager Tony.

That is awesome!! Congrats!! I’m so so excited I start academy tomorrow. I really enjoyed my behind the wheel training, shadow day, and even orientation. Everyone is so nice at my office and I’m just really excited to start working and getting some 🤑

Made regular last yr. Was an rca for 17 yrs. Had plenty of 3k checks. Running rtes all over hells half acre.

I needed to hear this. I thought about resigning as a CCA and going back to the education field. I’ve been so overwhelmed by everything over the past week.

Going from a ft pizza delivery driver to CCA. I’m a workaholic and I can’t wait to start. My orientation starts July 25th. Hustle and grind baby.

Hey man I’m just starting and your positivity is great when there is a lot of negativity on KZfaq about CCAs

“ You’re not going to be a CCA for life “ i agree Im getting ready to start here in NYC. Definitely something for the moment that’s worth holding onto as a job/career.

My gross pay is always over 3500.00 🤷‍♀️. Not peak. Never work over 12 hours. As a CCA. But see....everyone says they want the money but when they get in...they complain lol. People want money without the grind, hard work grit grind hussle and bustle 🤷‍♀️😭😭😭😂

Thanks for the information! I have a Bachelor’s degree but still can’t find a decent paying job. I don’t mind putting in the the work. I really wasted my time and money on a degree. I should have applied sooner.

Definitely tough it out at the PO and you will be making more than some with a college degree. Remember No such think as easy money you have to work for it

hi nick I been watching a lot of videos on your channel thank you for all your information you share with your subscriber. In 2 weeks, I got my orientation for CCA driver, thanks to you videos I found a lot good contend, you have new subscriber from Connecticut, happy new year 2024🎆

Keep grinding, focus on retirement while your young so it's a habit. You're doing awesome.

Thanks for this Nick! I just got offered a CCA position in the Tampa area so this helps a lot !

The Day to Day Grind, just put our heads down and GRIND IT OUT !

I start orientation on Monday. I live in a small town with only 2 routes. I am sure I will be loaned out to nearby towns a lot. It is all about the end game, you got that right. I have 13 years of military service I want to buy back once I am eligible.

Perfect video! That's what I been looking for man! I just got a conditional offer a few days ago. I finished filling out paperwork. I'm excited to start. I'm also a single guy. Just me. Job offer is also for CCA.

thank you for all your positivity, motivational and inspirational videos!

Awesome thanks for posting. Really looking forward to those checks. RCA

Thank you so much for your input. I am changing crafts from an MHA to a CCA. Gonna love that penalty pay!

Yes Nick I’m right there with you brother waiting on this paperwork and background to go through I started to follow you five months ago wow congratulations

Good job brother 💪🏼 I just started training today. LLV-izzle training tomorrow 😄🤙🏼

I’ve tried to tell people hard work pays off with the PO. The problem is these young bastards want everything handed to them. I’m like you can’t even show up on time for your shift. What make you think your worth 25 an hour. I’ve been here 2 years and I bought back my military time. Doing that increased my retirement benefit stuff, I moved up a few steps in pay, so now I’m at mid 20’s per hour for my pay. Even without OT I still make a nice check every 2 weeks.

Nick getting to that pape I see you bro this just a peak at the penthouse! Keep grinding brotha

People at my office have three cars including teslas and Porsches

Hey thanks🙌🏼

Iam a retired 33yr CCA ioved the job I've been retired 6yrs

Bro I’m on day 2 at the academy! It wasn’t till yesterday that I figured out 204b is the substitute boss for the day😂 Love your content ❤

Thanks Nick. Keep the videos uploaded

With all you earn it goes to social security. That’s good. By the time you retire should get a good pension. That’s almost a RN pay. I’m in backgrounds right now.

praise the lord brother they hand out overtime like candy in bigger offices

Thank you for the motivation.

Congrats Nick, good for you because you are single, but I am married and I don't know if it's worthwhile.

Thanks for the videos Nick hit some good points on here. I hear a lot of regulars don't put in for OT once they make regular guess its there choice then. Do you get a set 1 day off week as reg + another day off on amazon sundays total 2 off week once make req? With all cost of living adjustments, and top pay after 12yrs what are mail carriers looking at hourly as of today. Thanks bro appreciate your videos.

At my station unless I want to work 7 days I never have got over 46 hrs a week been there almost two months in fact I am sent to different towns all the time

Congrats! Nick! Hard working Man!

This is exactly what I’m trying to explain to my wife..have bills to pay and some debt to pay off..have other job offering $19hr and only 40 hrs a week within 10 years maxed at $26 with no Insurance till 6 months that will cost probably $200 a paycheck.It’s all simple math. I’m not afraid to work and have always worked in the weather. So ready to be a CCA..Its been 8 weeks since my fingerprints and HR responded back with a update that there still waiting for background to clear. For all of you that are waiting!

Thanks man this helps a lot!!

Starting point, end game, pretty damn good

you can make great money at the po, problem is you have no free time or life to enjoy.

Sounds GReat I get to see a comma in my check Whoa looking forward to it Xo

I’m going to attend an hiring event this week thanks for the info

that would pay off my car

Really motivated me I applied to two cca positions in my town thx

Gross $3,921.92 after tax $2,742.99 damn that's a lot of tax take off

Thank you Nick👍👍👍

I'm 4 days in. Fu@k this job. I spent 3.5 months as a collector at the main plant. I requested to be a route runner. They sent me to a station and I regret it. As soon as I get my CDL, I'm outtro. It's not worth it. If I was just delivering mail, I'd stay. It's everything else (that falls into bachelo-level managing of all things related to mail).

Maybe I need to become a cca again lol...its the weather for me

Tomorrow will be my second day of OJI. I can't wait until I get access to the TSP.

Look at the whole picture… it is awesome!!!

Damn... I'm only 2 months in and biggest week has been 63 hrs. Most the time around 54hrs.

12 years sheesh

Real talk I’m a cca lol and I love it ❤

I just was hired for a CCA in a small town in south ga, the town has less than 5000 people and only has 2 routes! I was told I would work 4 days a week...orientation starts tomorrow, what can I expect working in a small town? I have been told there a lot less headaches and maybe can be a easier job. What's your thoughts?

What do you do when you have doctor appointments?

What is an average check I can expect for working at the post office. Every 2 weeks

Thabks brotha!

Thanks for the video. I have a question for you. What do you think is better, CCA or MHA?

Congrats brother!!! Been watching your videos I tried to apply Its been a week i did my MVR still waiting for their response, how long does it usually take for mvr? Thanks

Enjoy it cause once you convert your pay gets cut in half unless you stay and work like a Cca… I feel like I got a demotion when I got converted…. 😢 also Cca’ s don’t get cola…..

Hey Nick. Thx for all videos and info. I start OJI on Monday. Been there for 3 wks throwing parcels and delivering 2 routes of parcels per day. Lots of hrs.. Hey what’s the easiest way to sign up for health insurance? Do I need to call or can it be done on liteblue? Any idea how much for family of 4 ?

1:05 read that contract again. Top pay should be reached in 38 months not 12 years. 😐

The pretty goods 😂

That's great.. some people is making that in a month..

just subbed man appreciate the info just finished orientation and the hand son driving today. im wondering what would the regular pay look like for two weeks?

You had to work crazy hours to get that much also most cca won't start at 34.00 hourly

What do you think will be better when it a regular? 1. 8hr list 2.WAL list or 3. ODL

I know some city carriers working 70 hours a week

And I'm sure you worked 7 Days a Week and lots of hours every Day to get it and probably got treated like 💩. Don't worry Buddy it's only gonna get worse. The more you do the more they will just keep adding to you especially if your a Runner.

As a CCA can u reach top pay? Or do you need wait until you get a.route/go full-time then u can reach top pay?

Do you get 2 days off a week?

Brrooo man Aint nooo Way $2k every 2 weeks??!!😮‍💨I had to watch this at least 5 times To be sure

Wow nick your so lucky

I claim “exempt” on line 7 of IRS Form W-4. It will block the federal tax out of your paychecks. Fuck Uncle Sam! LOL

How many days you work each week

How long did it take after you did your MVR to move on? I did mines on 1/12/22 and it’s still saying pre-hire list

A month in and I have only worked over 40 hours once. Don't think working 6 days a week is worth it for a check that's basically $500/$600 a week. Maybe it's the time of year or I am in just a really well staffed area. I could go back to bar tending and make this kind of money in 2 nights. Frustrating because I want to stick it out for the retirement aspect and I really enjoy the job too.

So sad when you convert to regular, your pay drops significantly

This is why it’s hard to leave my warehouse job.

Uncle Sam is gonna love you, when they take the taxes out of your pay 😂😂😂😂😂

Is $34 your top out pay? How much is your pay after being a regular?

😳... I hope so.

Hey nick I was wondering which is better CCA or RCA ?
