Sideways, hands over his ears and unwilling to hear….. So that’s where Allison learned that from.

Both my parents worked for the post office. I imagine they've got plenty of folks who are useless but I don't remember my dad taking a sick day my entire childhood. Only time my mom took sick days were to stay with one of us kids when we were sick, or if she had one of her debilitating migraines. Dad, even as a postmaster, would go out on Christmas day, sometimes in ice or rain or whatever, to delivery stuff he thought was presents. Our current carrier is a sweetheart named Janet who shows up every day without fail.
I'm sure mgmt sucks but don't blame the carriers and postmasters and clerks for that. I work at a fortune 100 company and our mgmt sucks too, but the worker bees like me are doing everything we can to push good products out to our customers as quickly and affordably and high-quality as possible.

Should have pulled away from the Federal Government and made a private business/public business many years ago. Just my  Side Note: There are some very good workers in postal service.

That pick above was when he was being questioned about mail in ballots and the guy would just repeat the question.
Politics.
The po should be 1st in line to get axxed by DOGE, IMO. That would be an easy one to do.

Why is the US Gov in the parcel and letter business again ?
Amazon could assume control of the USPS tomorrow and improve it.

Many years ago, Japan privatized their postal system and it’s done very well. Maybe they could divide it up between UPS, FedEx and Amazon.
