Why do we keep feeding the dead horse...

No business could operate with the govt requirements placed on the usps

Agreed, and the USPS can't either.

I know a USPS supervisor, works locally. $88,000 per year. Constantly complains about being underpaid. "Why don't you leave?" Response, swear to God, "I can't make that much anywhere else with these benefits."
:crazy:

They forgot to add "with doing this little"..

And 88 grand isn't underpaid being a local supervisor in the PO. They need to just ignore us FAA guys and our pay scales..:good!:

All government jobs are overpaid.

Got a woman I work with that makes $120,000 a year. She does three things at work: Sleep (because she is drunk), play solitaire, or go drinking with her husband for hours.

But hey she was a special pet project of someone in the 1990's so they can't/won't fire her..

All except mine, fact.:good!:

Postal Service loses $2 billion in second quarter | Reuters

The post office isn't concerned because it didn't lose 2 billion. Those numbers are inflated because the post office adds in a pre-funded retirement amount (forced by congress). Take that away, and the post office makes a profit.

I've heard of beating a dead horse and flogging a dead horse.

But feeding a dead horse is a new one to me.

I wondered about that myself..

Might have exaggerated a little, but not by much. The government is loaded with non essential, coddled workers & agencies that waste billions.
