It’s actually a two-tiered system. The actual USPS employees have a fat union contract which grants them benefits that even normal federal employees don’t have access to. They basically can’t be fired, even for not working. This is offset by hourly contractors who do most of the actual work, about as well as you would expect based on how little they are paid.
There is no hope of reforming the USPS until their union is busted. You can’t get rid of them without amending the Constitution. Fortunately, no one really needs them anymore.
Don’t worry the Post Office is going to deliver our Midterm Election ballots!!!!!
Maybe there won’t be a 2024 Election. Actually, all we need to do is total up who raises the most money and declare the winner based on that. But it if people haven’t figured it out already who they are going to vote for...what’s the use?
