This morning, I went to the post office to pick up airmail stamps. When I got there (at 8:25) there were 6 people in line ahead of me and only one person working behind the counter
. When the next customer remarked on the wait to be helped, the woman behind the counter replied "It's been determined that we make more money from the work in the back than the work in the front, so we put most of our workers in the back". After a few seconds, the customer said "So I guess my shipping is free? After all, you just said the post office isn't making money off of me." The worker had no idea how to respond.
No wonder the post office is pushing their online package pickup. I'd hate to see how bad it's going to be when it gets even closer to Christmas.
