NOTHING is said about reduction in Management at Postal Service. I worked for USPS for well over 20 years. I remember one 'old-timer' telling me a story that when "Carvin Marvin", Postmaster General Marvin Runyon ran the Postal Service during the 1990's, L'Enfant Plaza (USPS Headquarters had FLOORS of empty office space. He told me that the elevator doors would open, and there was NOTHING.

But, as soon as the USPS hired from within Postal Service ranks for the next Postmaster General, which also meant that all of his 'lackeys' followed, when said USPS Employee next visited L'Enfant Plaza, the cubicle farm was in FULL FORCE! Each and every floor FULL of new faces.

You hear of USPS downsizing the folks WHO ACTUALLY DO THE WORK, who actually generate the revenue, but NEVER hear anything about cutting back on the paper pushers, the ones who do nothing more than soak up the profits.

I believe it's time for me to research who's on the Committee for USPS at Senate and House of Representatives and request USPS start from the top next time they want to cut jobs.
