Marshall Post Office
Theresa Kamuck
Postmaster
Theresa was born in Tukchuk and lived part of her life in St.
Mary's. She has worked in the Post Office for about four years.
Theresa enjoys passing out mail, but she doesn't like people
complaining about mail not coming in. She first became interested in
her job when she was asked to be a substitute one day and she has
liked it ever since. The training she needed she has mostly received
through substituting, and the rest she gets from studying the books
and other information guides in the post office. Theresa feels her
job keeps her happy because it gets her up in the morning and keeps
her busy. She likes when Pete gets up first and warms up the house,
and when he takes her back and forth to work if the weather is
bad.
Charlotte Alstrom
Ellen Alstrom
Weekend Postal Worker
Ellen Alstrom was born in 1957 and she was raised in Marshall,
Alaska. She went to school at Marshall, Mt. Edgecumbe, Anchorage,
Kenai, and Bethel. She also went to college but only took a few
courses and didn't graduate. She has been working in the post office
for two years and will continue working there until she finds a full
time job. Ellen likes her job because she works part time so she
doesn't have to worry about babysitters for her kids.
She was interested in working at the Post Office because she
needed a part- time job. She didn't need any training before she got
her job but she has received ten hours of basic training since and
the rest she learns on the job. She feels that her job keeps her
stimulated, and she enjoys chatting with people. Sometimes, though,
she gets so busy she doesn't have much time to stand around. She
likes being busy because it makes the day pass by faster. She doesn't
like grouchy customers. Ellen has a family and it affects her
performance because if she doesn't have a babysitter she might be
late or her kids might be running around in the post office.
