UPS is just the better choice if you want this career. They start higher and within 5 years you will be making more than I do after 23 years at USPS. 23 years ago they were all much closer, I wanted my Navy time to count as well which it does for those with military or other federal employment.
I think even working for a FedEx ground private contractor may be better too.
I tell many people it almost doesn't matter where you go to work, if you stick with the same organization for 30 years and work you will be in a good position. I could have started at Walmart 23 years ago and if worked as hard as I have here would probably be making more money there by now. What the PO might be good for is someone who doesn't want to actually work hard or apply themselves to move up as they will still pay well and just let you skate along. All hard work gets you here is more work, everyone gets the same money.
