I am a RCA assigned to an auxillary route. I am against the closing of the post offices on Saturday's because so many of us depend on that Saturday delivery in order to support our families. I'm one of the fortunate ones to have my own route, but so many RCAs only have that Saturday to work. The higher ups that are making all the decisions to stop Saturday delivery, don't work on Saturdays anyway, so they would not feel the pinch in one way or another. It may look good on the USPS books, but some other government agencies would see increases in the welfare rolls and other government sponsored programs.

THANK YOU for having the whole list here. As usual, the government has looked before it leapt, and nothing is available at any of the links leading to their site for the Postal Regulatory Commission. They have been too swamped, I guess, to keep up. None of the links I have tried has been able to get through, so I am so pleased to finally see the list posted elsewhere. This is the only place I have found it available. As a postal employee, I have been concerned, naturally, since word got out that this information was available. You would think that they would have anticipated being swamped with visitors and prepared for it, but, no, this is a government entity we are talking about, so, as usual, it is leap before you look, not look before you leap, because that would just make too much sense. I personally think they should do away with some of the managers positions at these offices; they are completely unnecessary, could save a ton of money, and could relieve the workers headaches caused by too many cooks in the kitchen, too many chiefs in charge, take your pick of euphemisms, they all apply. Also, those yearly bonuses they pay out could probably save a few million or so, but then we wouldn't want to take those away from those poor, underpaid postmasters, now would we? Just my thoughts from the trenches.
