Postal Service to end evening collection at thousands of post offices

- Advertisement -

Imagine if the Postal Service announced that it would continue providing 6-day delivery to urban areas but could no longer afford to do the same for rural communities because their relatively low mail volumes don’t justify the costs.

People living in these communities would undoubtedly complain that the plan was unfair, and elected officials who represent states and districts that are largely rural would be certain to object.

Yet the Postal Service has begun implementing a plan that discriminates against rural areas in much the same way, and it’s all happening under the radar.

  3. I never joined the union. Our union rep showed up an hour late to her presentation. Winged it…then said sign here and your a union member. She retired the next year, after making a special trip 80 miles away to show up for my drive test just to stair me down…soooo. yup. I resigned this spring when they cut my route by 7%. I moved on. Best thing that ever happened to me was leaving. No regrets.
