I switched from letter carrier, to fleet manager, to electronic technician, to traveling area maintenance technician at the post office over the last 2 years. I was going to retire in 3.5 years but had been thinking this new gig is too easy to retire. I could be convinced if it payed about $50/hr including driving time. Thats more than I make now, but why would I leave for less when more time also keeps increasing my retirement? The PO may need a bunch more electricians too with the fleet electrification.
