This is unfortunate.

 

so what if mail wasent going to come on Saturday packages still would have

 

This was the key to me. I rarely ever get anything desired via a letter in USPS, but I do get packages I want. Those would have continued to be delivered on Saturday.

 

Lovely, Congress passes legislation requiring the Post office to lose even more money.

 

Not excited about this at all. I'm still in favor of mail deliver Mon, Wed, and Friday only. Post office can be open 6 days a week if they want, but we don't need delivery 6 days a week. If someone needs a package to arrive on Tuesday they can use overnight mail and one local driver can deliver all of the overnight items (similar to how they do now).
This would save huge amounts of money, and why not make the delivery vehicles hybrids? may cost some up front, but they could run almost exclusively on battery power around most towns.

 

MWF delivery of letters and bulk mail items would be fine by me.

 

Ugh. I was hoping they'd cut this down. There is nothing I need delivered on a Saturday that couldn't wait until Monday. If I need it that bad I can have it delivered to my PO Box and drive my own butt down there to pick it up.

 

well whats wrong with sunday delivery? I mean why discriminate against sunday?

 

It's the day of rest....

That's why they don't deliver on Friday Night either....

 

Hey now, mail carriers love their football, golf, and nascar too!
