USPS considering cutting 120,000 JOBS!!!!!!

Most of these people have worked USPS all their life and will be unmarketable.

A simple way to fix the unemployment numbers is to flip them all under government payroll. There, economy fixed.
 
I liked the post office until I moved to the city where the postal workers at the post office are just so rude. I don't understand why they aren't trained in customer service. I hope they cut the right people.

Well most employees will blame the customer for their stupidity and rudeness while the customer will blame the worker for being rude, soooo

I have to admit I dont think they need to be trained in customer service since they offer a service no matter how slow it might be or unhelpful they might seem people still have to use their service. Every time I walk in they are completely understaffed and the wait time is about 10-20 mins since they usually have about 2-3 people behind the counter and about 10-25 people waiting in line at any given point in the day!
 
The problem is that no matter what we do, USPS will still lose money... my U.S. friend says that much of his mail is wrongly delivered to neighbours in the next apartment, so if they can't deliver mail properly, they surely can't get their finances straight. Sad but true.

That is an incredible amount of people that may be losing their jobs, even if its half that at 60,000 thats still a great amount of people. USPS will continue to lose money as mail volume drops. In the next 10 years mail will not exist! Everything will be in digital format, you can laugh and think mail will be here for another 50 years but its not. As everything goes digital why even have mail, paperless billing, the ability to read digital magazines and other worthless pieces of junk mail can now be all read with the click of a button. There is no turning around the amount of losses the USPS will rack up over the next years ahead.

Don't be silly. People ship things all the time. Stores need inventory, Amazon customers need their consumables, People need their pay checks... etc etc... The USPS will still be around in 50 years. It will just be smaller.

Offer mail only to the local post office and charge a fee for door to door service

The only mail I get is junk mail...so they might have to pay me to pick it up. They can keep all my mail. I pay everything online and the only good thing that comes in my mail is Blockbuster movies
 
I never had any problem with the post office. Always on time always professional. But I understand the the hate. All those benefits, perks, vacations, decent wages. Come on! Time to join the rest of America, with non existent health care for most, shitty wages, shitty schedules, part time employment, 1 week vacations and no union to back them up. yeap that is the ticket to prosperity. LOL

BTW when are we going to downgrade the military? I say cutting half of them would do the trick and lowering its budget to 100 billion should help close the gap.

Please define a time in the future when we are not going to require a military.

Obama has been an excellent Warlord - he certainly will not cut the military budget.
