No 'green shoots' at the post office, huh?

In fact, where are the 'green shoots'?

I hand deliver cards as much as possible. Why put big bonuses in the pockets of highly-compensated postal managers.

The U.S. Postal Service has cut its staff by 25,000 this year as it struggles to reduce massive deficits, Postmaster General John Potter said Monday.

Good! I hope they get rid of my carrier. There's not a day goes by that I don't get someone elses mail in my box. That scares me because she's probably putting my mail in someone elses box too. I filed a complaint with the local post office last month, and since that time, I've got three "warnings" from her. I hope she gets laid off, or fired.

Two years ago postal rates went up because gas prices were climbing to nearly $4 per gallon.

Now, they rates have gone up again...But Why?

Gas prices are down around $2.50 per gallon and now we find out that USPS is also cutting 25000 jobs.

If anything, postage rates should drop, or stay the same!

Uh-oh. 25,000 Postal employees to be terminated; record setting sales of guns and ammo. This could get ugly.

As with other large businesses, overgenerous union bebefits and retiree health care is doing them in.

That, and the fact the fedex and UPS do it better....

“The post office is seeking permission from Congress to reschedule some of its contributions to a retiree health care fund, which would reduce spending this year by $2 billion.”

I love how this is not explained further. 2 billion dollars in savings? Over a retirement account? How could that be?

Unknown to most is that the Pentagon hides part of its budget by causing it to be made law years ago that all military retirees working at the Post Office will have their retirement pay come out of USPS funds. It is a fact.
