I know and talk with several of them, so I know this to be factual.

I can't put them in the 'deserving of a tip' category.
that's cool, i do.

they get paid well here and would have to go postal to lose their job.

that said, the $50 a year i give to my local carrier has dividends + it makes me feel good to give a gift to someone who is typically taken for granted, as you state, by the public.



your postal carrier is your friend.
