U.S. Postal Service...to drop one day of mail service! Cost-cutting measures...








Officials are recommending that the U.S. Postal Service drop one day of mail delivery during the course of the week from the current six days to five as a cost-cutting measure.

Chief Financial officer - Joseph Corbett - noted that the entity (which currently functions as a corporation) may suffer losses up to $7 billionin 2010  if overhead-reducing actions aren't taken soon.

Dropping one day of mail delivery may conceivably save the letter carrier service approximately $30 billion a year.

In the work arena, the Post Office would be able to reduce man hours by ninety-three million a year, according to analysts.

If the Internet could fathom a way to deliver packages over the world wide web, just imagine the reduction of costs (and nasty street traffic) that could be eliminated as well!

I'll put on my thinking cap!
