<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 6392838, member: 100459"]I don't know what the Director's background is or if he has worked in the private sector, but, the Mint is a business, just like the Post Office. Both of them are under fire to make a profit or at least don't have a loss. Any business manager that doesn't make a profit or at least break ever, doesn't deserve to work with their agency. I don't know what the Post Office's directive is, but they do need to increase their sales and increase prices. I think the Director of the Mint has gotten the word to make a profit. When I see a product that the Mint is selling, if I want it, I have to pay the price they are selling it for. Of course, their prices are rising. They made a significant lost last year as the Post Office did. I would like to be the Director of the Post Office. Two things need to change. Locations of post office boxes like they do at trailer parks, apartments, and other group houseing. Quit delivering on Saturday. Increase prices on special items. Reduce the number of employees and put their salaries in a reasonable range. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have thousands of missionaries all over the world. Let them deliver the mail. They're smart and are clean looking. It could reduce the cost to deliver the mail. (That's just a "Mormon" joke.) Anyway, the Mint has the same problems.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
