Instead of 'U.S. post office' it could be something like 'Coca-cola post office.'

What about even selling ad's on their mail trucks to help also?

Do you think they should consider doing this?

I will admit I have never bought stamps in my life and I pay all my bills online, I print out coupons as well. But I know some people who still use the post office and need the mail.

funny.

At some point they'll need to cut back operations...
5 days vs 6; alternate or 3rd day residential delivery.

That might be enough to solve most of the current and future issues.
But that still leaves the pensions they haven't been funding properly.

The post office will be fine as long as congress stops imposing on them draconian rules that of course other government agencies or private industries have to deal with.
Thats without even touching reducing deliveries and laying off etc.
