As a USPS employee I just laugh. It’s their own fault for making their employees be out in it in these unsafe conditions. Yet preach safety to us daily…

This city is a mess right now and employer forcing people to go to work or meet delivery times is insane and it’s going to get people hurt.

I believe it's because they are labeled as critical. I agree with you but even during covid I worked for a mechanical contractor and was considered essential/critical.

Use some card board, wood, or chains. Throw some cat litter up under there. People are trying to keep the world turning at least.
