what kind of test is given to the casual mailhandlers at the post office?

After 6 months i will be given a test so I can get hired on and get a raise, what kind of test is it? is it hard or easy? should i be worried or studying?

It's all about remembering numbers.

123553 Main Street
123543 Main Street
123543 Main Street

After a long paragraph with other information they will ask you which one was out of place.

so you already had the;
0 thru 9 numbering sequences / A thru Z alphabetizing / number and lettering tasks running concurrent?
well then your final test question will probably read;
In a given situation, where you are confronted with your boss picking on you, overloading you with demeaning jobs outside your job description, giving you the graveyard shift plus so-called over-time of the day shift, only one day off (that being tuesday) and then calling you into work, send you out to deliver mail with the wrong mailbag (on foot), gives you a uniform with the pants that come up to your calves, broken zipper and 2 sizes to small, a female employers shirt to big that you have to knot it in the front and your peers constantly pranking you.
What would be your definition of, GONE POSTAL?
A) GET SHORTY

B) GET ANTHRAX

C) GET ANOTHER JOB

D) GET A GUN

E) GET A CLUE

F) ALL OF THE ABOVE

Choose your answer wisely, you could get fired before getting hired.

all postal employees are given a civil servants exam. ask at the library and see if they have a study guide.

They give you lots of paper cuts on your hands and see how quickly you heal.

The faster you heal the better qualified mailhandler you are.
