I saw the down hill slide since day one……..in 1995 I started adding 100 shares each of UPS & FDX every year to my stock portfolio. arrogant, poor, bloated, uneducated, corrupt, unethical, crony po mismanagement and a lot of OT made it a no brainer. also put full 15% into TSP and never used it as a bank to take out loans. 20 years later with the place in the dirt, with no way to affect operations, hedging the po was the only smart business move to make. apple splitting 7-1 was the cherry on the cake. retire next years-thanks for the memories lol. its done put a fork in it!
All employee are very very happy by getting morning hours.management can save night difference money.coustmor now know , so they will mail first class mail 3 days in advance and if miss that ,than useing priority or express mail which is more money than first class mail, so i think win win condition for everybody. exallent move.
Pls. don’t take away over night delivery also save 6 day delivery save our jobs.
I saw the new delivery standards for the first time yesterday. I came to work at 1400 as usual and there was mail for a FORmerly overnight area all in and on the conveyor belt of the FSM 100. I think that might be the first day of the end of the post office, at least it was the first day I saw it myself.
