Today, I would like to talk about business cycles. A business cycle is composed of four parts. There is the prosperity phase, recession phase, depression phase and recovery phase. We are in the prosperity phase. Unfortunately after the prosperity phase, always comes the recession phase. Several factors can cause the nation to go into a recession. The main factor is overvaluation. When items start to cost more than they are actually worth, then the bottom will fall out eventually.

4. Talk with an employee about the work attitude at that post office before applying. Some bad ones.
