1. Out here...

mail delivery is the highlight of the day...

Saturdays are going to suck now. And if the following Monday is a holiday, that makes three days in a row.

Those bastards.

2. Embrace the peacefulness of life.

5. Oh, believe me...

I do.

It's great out here in the woods.

Even better when we lose power for a while and all household noise stops.

7. The quiet of the night wakes me when the power goes out.

I've got birds to keep warm in the winter.

Haven't had anyone out to set up a connection to my generator since we've moved.

Other than that minor inconvenience in the winter, I enjoy the peace. yes, indeed.

3. I assume the way money will be saved is by cutting people salary - not so funny :(

4. It is my hope that the hours will be shifted into the busier work week.

The volume of mail will not vary, just the time frame needed to process it.

The true savings will come from, less use to delivery vehicles.

I was not making a joke, at all.

This teh Lounge.

6. I can see where

that would be a huge deal where I am.

In town a mail person could walk from house to house because they're close enough.

Up here in the forest where I am, there can be a thousand feet or more between one house and the next. Lots of gas being used....

8. Thanks for adding weight to my point.

Well done.
