My tenure as an employee in the S.A. Post office

Working for the S.A Post office holding the mentioned critical positions has been interesting and eye opening. On a daily basis one would wake up to meeting both internal and external clients, either by formal meetings or attending to queries both telephonically and in an arranged meeting. Honouring scheduled and ad hoc staff and clients meetings to address and ensuring the efficient running of the office. Self discipline, adherence to company policies and procedures, respect and taking pride to the job has made it seem easy though challenging. People management and interaction at different levels has been the most challenging aspect of the job, but interesting. Opportunities for further studies for all employees has been preached and practised in the company.

Pros: I have experienced great and numerous opportunities by being promoted to higher level positions on merit and secondments to running projects.
Cons: The exposure to the higher level positions and commitment to the job, has on many occasions resulted in working long hours, leading to sometimes missing out on important personal aspects of ones life.

Good company to explore Investigation

Security and investigations is too challenging in this company as we have too little limited days to complete/finalize cases. Colleagues personally hate Investigation officers for crimes they commit. I have learnt a lot in this company and had broaden my mind in terms of Investigation. Writing skills regarding reports and managing staff are some of the skills I learnt. Cyber crimes are some of the crimes I learnt to investigate here. I mostly enjoy the traveling when doing most of my work in the field unlike Office administration.

Pros: Great opportunity for a promotion
Cons: Lot of cases

The company does provide the necessary learning means required.

My responsibilities include among others Stock management, where I have to control stock, including monthly stock takings and keeping it safe at all times. This for me enjoyable because is a schedule I am used to do. Courses like Customer service taught me how to relate and socialise with internal and external clients.

Pros: The company offers greater opportunity for promotion
Cons: Normal working hours are provided, One only has to overstay at work due to the amount of work load/pressure

Excellent learning curve

Its not a typical work day as there are loads of challenges in regards to our products/services offering in the current day. However, dealing with these challenges, further develops my interpersonal, negotiation and problem solving skills. I have an opportunity to deal with colleagues closely and daily as our functions are interlinked, so this built good relationships amongst us. I have learnt people skills, due to my company's current challenges my problem solving and analytical skills were polished. I do enjoy bringing solutions to problems, proving good customer service is my passion. The biggest challenge is not having stock to sell and not providing proper service to our clients.

Pros: Developed good people skills
Cons: No opportunity for growth
