You Should Be OUTRAGED by What Is Being Done to Our POSTAL SERVICE

[Euphoria]

30. I too am outraged

A day ago I was in my local Post Office waiting for the guy ahead of me to be served. He was asking for a specific kind of stamp and the clerk said that they don't currently have it and maybe in a week. He said that she told him that a week or two ago. She just nodded and said that she hopes it'll come in.
I excused myself, interrupted, and told him that these great clerks and workers are not getting the support they need to do their job. I said that the PO makes great money. I continued and said that Congress, in particular the majority party in the House, is doing their best to strangle and make ineffective our PO system. Continuing, I said that it was because the guys in power would prefer that their friends, in the private sector, would make more money out of sucking dry what great things are done on behalf of the public.
I apologized to the clerk for maybe putting her in a difficult position, but it needs to be said.
He didn't say anything to me, just walked out.
I then went up to the clerk and said, something about "even getting a stamp becomes political these days....hang in there".
Her eyes said it all.

Boy I am outraged because once again, right from under our noses &/or in front of our eyes, major rip-off is happening and no one seems to care.
