Having a Hard Time Understanding this One

Very interesting. I did not know about that sponsorship.  Very interesting news.  Sounds like the USPS has mad more than one bad decision.

Paddy * yet the federal government wants to pull their NASCAR funding for military sponsorship of the #88 and #39 cars - go figure....USPS needs to clean up their post office buildings, open earlier and stay open LATER and start utilizing technology

Good morning Paddy - I had no idea about the sponsorship. You're right - it makes no sense for the USPS to sponsor anything, much less at a time when they're operating at a loss. Bizarre!

Paddy -- USPS was one of the major sponsors - as could be seen on their cycling uniforms.  That is an interesting tidbit about closing 10% of facilities without laying anyone off.  Maybe there was some reduction in personnel through attrition, but it might be hard to document.
