Love this job!
RPO Clerks took great pride in their jobs and to this day will speak fondly of the men they worked with and the sense of pride that they felt for delivering the U.S. Mail. Although email and text messages offer easy access to family and friends - there is still nothing that makes us feel special like receiving a card or letter from someone in the mailbox.
In their own words...
