Chicago Postal Worker

Implementation Overview, Flat Mail Cart Standard Operating Procedure (SOP), Working Instruction, Mail Preparation, inter alia. The posting of this link was in response to a specific inquiry. The requested information—Mail Cart SOP is provided via this link to a page whereupon one lone working red link points to the Mail Cart SOP about half-way into the document. It's crude and the original document's format has been butchered—but it nevertheless serves its purpose here.
National Standardization Guide The official Standardization Guide exists in Word's 'doc' format. However, I have converted this version into the more widely accepted pdf format.
