In 2020, Myers' job was also affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. It was a “frightening” time, he shares, when he had to walk 20 miles a day. More mails and less carriers causing packages to pile up with not enough employees to handle. He even recalls that “A lot of people are quitting due to being burnt out.”
Nevertheless, Myers is still persistent in working, and even has time for his wife Jalyn and his 1-year-old-son Jacob. Both Myers and Jalyn contribute to their expenses, although the latter earns a lot lower.
