The tricky part is that everyone knows what you are and
you tend to loose friends since you are constantly eying them
at work and what they do on work time. e.g. pocket anything or
other inspection of mail for goodies... Postal inspectors have eyes.

My father-in-law retired #1 in the union of Dallas - that was something!
He was ever watchful for those who might get him in trouble. He often
carried cash and large banking bonds / certificates as several large
and famous oil men, insurance men, and money men were on his route.

I don't know what happens in the handoff between Fedex& USPS, but I
can tell you it is highly unlikely that USPS employees are splitting
up your goodies. Mu brother is an electronics technician in a major
USPS sorting facility, and the security is very tight. Occasionally,
someone does get tempted to skim some stuff, but, since there are
security cameras looking at pretty much every square inch of the
building (and those are the cameras you can see, there are,
undoubtedly more cameras that are hidden), the perpetrator gets led
out of the building in handcuffs.

USPS has their own federal LEO; the Postal Inspectors.

Has anyone here ever -seen- one of these mythical USPSPI beasties?

I knew one for years, he retired about 5 yrs ago.
A largely boring job with a few moments here and there of utter terror.
