Looks like we'll have to step up the bombing to get them back in the black.:D

I wonder if that includes PO Box delivery, or is just residential/street delivery. Unless I read it incorrectly (and I will say I only just skimmed it) it doesn't specifically say that mail will not be transported on Saturdays, just no delivery service - so you would still have outgoing collectons on Saturday.

Re: Bad News for USPS

Even if USPS loses money, it is critical to the US Economy and our national interest/security that our postal service be of the highest standard and affordable.

I'd rather our tax money go to maintain the excellent service we have than a lot of things we dump even more money into.
