I think that the OP is referring to shops done at non-USPS locations (national office products store, dedicated shipping outlets, independent copy, print, and mail stores) which are now authorized USPS locations. I have been doing these for months, and there are two specific scenarios currently. These have been discussed before. No 35 minute rules, and some are even open in the evening. My experience is that over 50% of the "independent" shipper employees do not ask anything about what is being shipped.
The OP did say " the two worst employees in the USPS", but I think this is an issue around who they work for. They work for the store, not the USPS. The reference to two new scenarios exactly reflects the non-USPS location shops.
