Nad's cutting photos go out of their way to show the huge crowds of USPS persons...

16. at the top of this there were 600 or so

and Congressman Vargas walked with the workers. I was happy, they made it easy for me, since they were going around the building, I could literally find the best light, and just wait, and get my photos.

This was the easiest demonstration to shoot like EVER. Now chasing politicians, that was fun. My legs hurt from doing that, actually. But I am glad I got every one that showed up, and staff, on record.

 

yet the pics show about a dozen or so... maybe...

That's the best The Good Rig could do?

I hope her stubby little legs supporting all that weight hurt for a month.

13. For some odd reason so am I,
 

so I asked the question from an angle that covers all the stops for my rural readers... it is shocking to see an informed reporter though... not the usual bland questions, but more in depth. Hopefully it will help to lit a fire under my rural residents

Where is the disclaimer that her husband works for the post office?

When the only thing the Post Office delivers is junk mail...how can the public sympathize?

[Karin]

That's right, it's only bills and junk mail.  This shit can wait for Monday.

For years I've said I would gladly pay double or triple the price for stamps if the post office would only deliver first-class mail.

How about a flat monthly fee to opt out of junk mail delivery?

The post office could save billions and shed countless thousands of union drones.

I saw someone argue that seniors needed to get their SS checks on Saturdays. IIRC, SS checks are now put directly on cards....they no longer send paper checks.

Social Security is paid by direct deposit, on a Wednesday.

Which Wednesday of the month is determined by your birthday.

Now that was actually worth a H5!

If they are protesting, who's delivering......?

True. Unless you are really old or on SSI, it's on the 3rd of the month (Beneficiaries receiving benefits prior to May 1997 or receiving both Social Security benefits and SSI) ....but if the 3rd falls on a weekend I think the check shows up early.

Some people still get paper checks.

I get all my bills online so the only thing the USPS delivers to me is junkmail

[GOBUCKS]

I wonder if there's a single person in the nutcase's pictures that isn't connected in some way the postal workers union.

They're the only ones who care.

The best service, if we can't pay to opt out of junk mail delivery, would be to have delivery only one day per week, so we could sort out the half dozen or so pieces of mail per week we need, and toss the rest.

If we could sort out and toss all the junk mail at one fell swoop each week, it might help promote the moonbats' recycling scams.

As it is I put a stack of junk mail in the trash every day, and I imagine most people do the same.

My boyfriend's mother gets her check on the 3rd; but as of March 1st they put her deposit on a card...didn't even give her an option. It is true that if the 3rd fell on a weekend; they would send the check early.
