However, there's some good news for job seekers on the Central and South Coasts, as USPS officials say they're looking to recruit 200 staff across the region to cope with increased demand.

Analia Garcia, USPS Field Recruiter, told KCLU, "We have had an increase in package volumes...everyone thinks the postal service is just delivery mail or working at the window but there's a lot of opportunities in the postal service to make it a career."
