Stop the mail on Saturday. That’d be fine with me as I hate getting bills on Saturdays anyhow.

Yes, but if you send and receive a good deal of packages that won’t help.

I also think they should get rid of a lot of the rural routes and just provide free (maybe a deposit for the key) PO boxes. And I say this because I live in the “sticks” and am amazed that they deliver mail out all these dirt roads...

I hate having to collect the mail on weekends period. Nothing Friday through Monday would suit me fine. As long as they reduce the USPS funding.

Bingo.
In this age, anybody that needs something faster has real options.

Ditto. Makes sense.

RE: “Stop the mail on Saturday. That’d be fine with me as I hate getting bills on Saturdays anyhow.”

I totally agree — who needs mail on Saturdays? Around here (Los Angeles) mail/junk ads on the porch are like an invitation to burglars to come on in. Many of us have lots of errands or other activities plus the occasional weekend away that would make it nice NOT to find mail on the porch upon return.

Go ahead, USPS, dump Saturday delivery, please!

I agree....

But that's too easy a fix....for the Fed's to think of.

They will just propose more money..............that's how they "fix" everything.

Five day, forty hour work weeks - cut employees (across the board) a commensurate amount while you are at it.
