During the Clinton years, the USPS began to give very preferential treatment to blacks — someothing not widely reported — and almost overnight, the force became heavily black.

I’ve seen a steady decline in service with the arrival of mostly black postal deliverers. They misdeliver something every single week. That NEVER used to happen. Plus, they often have a nasty attitude rather than an attitude they are here to serve the public. They walk across the lawn, for example, instead of following walkway.

So both the accuracy of service and the quality of the relationship between the USPS and its customers has deteriorated badly. This is the major reason I pay everything online. I can’t trust the bills to get to where they are supposed to go ontime.

Oh, yeah, crossing lawns ~ no, that's not the employees, that's management ~ the virtually lilly white postal management who directed the carriers to cross lawns.

Thought you knew that.

Well, live and learn. Frankly, I'd like to take away DOOR DELIVERY and replace it with community cluster box service. Then you could cut across your own lawn and nobody would care.

Bwahahahahah!

Oh, and the black employees? The percentage was a tad higher BEFORE Bill Clinton. As you know seniority counts in USPS in the crafts, so the employees get to "bid" on the better carrier routes. As black employees began to achieve serious seniority (due to years of good performance and clean records) they bid on your neighborhood.
