So, you noticed there's no Xerox machine in the lobby at the post office. That's because USPS is a government agency. Your private sector operators like 7/11, Kinkos, Office Depot, Staples, Stationers, etc. DEFEATED THAT IDEA EASILY. The Consumer Advocate at USPS continues to get heavy mail volumes concerning the idea of putting photocopiers in the lobby.
You'll notice on these Freeper threads that sometimes you'll have someone complaining about USPS selling envelopes, boxes and tape. GUESS WHY THEY COMPLAIN?
Here’s a secret for you. Way back in the beginning of time Postal Headquarters managers fed up with the way Congress refused to allow modernization of postal operations gathered up their loose change, quit the POD and went out to Seattle to buy a local “furniture moving and parcel delivery” business called UPS.
No secret to me. Thanks for reinforcing my arguments about any government business failing at being professional.
