<p>[QUOTE=&quot;imrich, post: 4800594, member: 22331&quot;]I would appreciate your comments as a postal worker, but as a rural client who has seen the results of your supposed cost reduction approach, it generally just results in changes away from U.S.P.S., as is believed currently occurring.</p><p><br /></p><p>As the past design engineering leader who occasionally over-saw the postal plant requirements, the equipment was appropriate, heavily constructed to absorb constant jams from improper packaging, relay logic that could be trouble-shot by minimally educated operators, with simple replacement components. The KISS approach! Todays&#039; equipment, similar to our appliances/vehicles, is inexpensively designed for the frugal buyer, with circuit boards from elsewhere, and designs to resist deformation when new, purchased from the least expensive foreign source.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Criminals love delivery locations to be combined, with delivery at times when the client may not be available. I lost appreciable &quot;mail&quot; to &quot;gangs&quot;. Designed/built a tamper-proof custom box with stand which they destroyed with heavy-equipment by run-over. Replaced&nbsp; with a base 8&#039; deep, they exploded the box. I decided they won, all mail would be delivered to a P.O.Box, to which sellers often won&#039;t deliver, employees learn to recognize &quot;value&quot; and business activities, and occasionally delivery is unreported. Now have boxes/addresses in multiple states, and use alternate shipping, always providing optimum shipment insurance, warning customer of potential delivery problems, etc..</p><p><br /></p><p>I have multiple postal employee relatives, and the thanks-giving updates have been enlightening. Postal changes are believed inevitable, but that Union is believed to be virtually invincible. Look at the gift proposed by congress for current conditions/performance.</p><p><br /></p><p>JMHO[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
