So angry at what they are doing to the post office!

I just found out they replaced my postal lady and gave her only 2 days a week of work somewhere else. She was already having it hard with 5 days of part time…

Gerri was a republican but we got along great and she was a good postal woman who delivered things on time and spoiled all of us by taking packages to our homes with our mail boxes up on the street.

The new lady Debbie got a earful from me about the law the republicans did trying to destroy the postal service, about how Ryan's wife helped lobby against the post office. About how no other business in America has to have pension paid for ten years in advance.

I could tell by what she said or didn't say she was a republican also but agreed that what they were doing to postal service was wrong. She said small towns like ours the USPS does packages for UPS and Federal Express.

I live in a small town in WA state.

I thought they were demanding the savings for pensions for the next 75 years.

Either way, they are trying to destroy the union. That's why they are doing this.
