I'm sure technology has hit the USPS hard with email and electronic bill paying. I personally can't remember the last time I bought stamps. I do, however, use the service for my QB sales.
'Just a thought though: originally the mail was delivered on horse back and the motto was, and is: Neither rain, sleet, snow nor dark of night will keep the postman from his appointed rounds. My street didn't have mail delivery for a whole week during the recent snow storm!
Back when mail was delivered on horse back you were so glad to get mail that you wouldn't think about sueing the mailman. Now a days if the grass is run over or the box gets a dent, some people are on the phone screaming and threating to sue. Also things are so hard that if we get hurt we are written up and our jobs are in jepardy.
