Deficit, Yet Bonuses, at Post Office (July 19, 2001|From the Washington Post via LA Times)
The U.S. Postal Service is facing a $2-billion deficit this year, yet the postmaster general has told top managers they could see performance bonuses of up to 25% of their salaries."This year our productivity is up," Postmaster General John Potter said in a letter to 900 senior executives. "By pulling together, we can minimize our loss and earn additional pay for the performance achieved."
...The USPS was criticized earlier this year when it paid out $197 million in bonuses, or incentives as the Postal Service calls them, despite a $199-million deficit for last year. But this would be the first time the agency, a self-supporting government monopoly, would be granting bonuses in the face of such monumental deficits.
So if that was in 2001, and they did that crap for several years (as it was reported on at the time), I'd say that $200,000,000 in bonuses is a fair guess.
You have a better figure to claim "$20,000,000" or NO bonues?
I don't believe you really are 490.
You dug up misleading 10 year old information from The Washington Post to try and support your claim. LOL - Not surprising at all. This is easy to refute, but honestly, you are just not worth my time or effort to educate. Believe whatever you want.
