I get pensions. But when the rest of the country in private sector doesn’t have pensions or even pensions and 401ks (yes both) maybe the logical solution is to adjust instead of just gutting and firing. I know usps staff won’t want to hear this and I’m sorry.

And the post office also does a lot of "last mile" deliveries for for profit delivery companies. The post office is so important and needs to be protected and acknowledged as a service that is not intended to make a profit

And those private companies use USPS half the time when you ship with them.
