Are you a Masochist or something? Who in their right mind would want to retire and then work in an environment like the U.S. Postal service???
Depends on which craft he is (some are far worse then others) and what Federal retirement system he was under with USAF. Federal Thrift Saving Plan rocks, I can see working for that and the rest of the benefits. He's probably going to buy back his military time for retirement from USPS since he is probably planning to work for USPS for atleast 10 years to be vested. So atleast 10 years of USPS plus buyback of military time equals retiring after 30+ years of postal work plus his Social Security, plus the Thirft plan (like 401K) and he'll be pretty set. :cheers:
