I’m not convinced they should survive, given all the waste. USPS jobs pay well tho. I’ve made some decent money as a contractor… hauling truckloads of these garbage commercial flyers and nondescript magazines. But in the distribution facilities, I’ve often seen literally shipments of birds, bees, plants, or just glancing down at a pile of mail, might see an obvious love letter. Hopefully not a creep. And all the shipping from Amazon, UPS, Fedex, etc, tends to find its way in a USPS truck.
edit: also, fuck DeJoy. that rat bastard can go back to XPO.
i’m not sure which choir to which you preach, but it ain’t over here. I’m not complaining about “government services”, but transporting truckloads of useless paper is lame and wasteful. That is a thing that USPS does. And USPS also gets easily exploited, see the OP meme.
Let me try another tack. USPS has the lowest rate for sending anything compared to UPS and FedEx. Sure they can’t guarantee the exact date of delivery because Mike might need a day for “self care” or “self taking care of shit during business hours”".
You want it now, you just a premium. Grainger got half the shit you want to do a job but at a premium. Same concept.
The cool thing about USPS is they are required to deliver to any and all addresses in America. Your Grandma lives in the middle of nowhere and needs her prescriptions? Usps is probably the only service that will deliver that to her.
In fact medication is a top reason why we NEED the USPS to survive
You’d be killing the USPS. They survive because of that garbage.
I would rather pay for more expensive stamps than a time and environmental cost.
Then the USPS is too large and not fit for purpose.

USPS is a magnificent success of the the United States as a country. Holy shit let me shake some of that junk mail out your truckload.
Government services shouldn’t be built to turn a profit.
Government services shouldn’t die based on your bias at your job.
The USPS is one of the few legitimate things we can point to show American Democracy could be great. Fuck all the bullshit mail.
But yeah fuck DeJoy.

That’s a strange way of spelling “straight to fucking hell”.
