Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Must be nice.
USPS deliveries up here are all kinds of messed up. We've had to repeatedly chase down packages that were going to the wrong PO or just sitting somewhere.

Removing underutilized sorting machines just before they will probably need to be utilized can't wait until after the election and has to suddenly be done now?

Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.
New pontiac concerns, apparently pontiac sorts a buttton of mail
apparently no one checked with the post office before setting mailing deadlines

The Postal Service sent Benson’s office a letter that said Michigan’s vote-by-mail laws are “incongruous” with USPS standards and that the ballot deadlines create a mismatch with delivery.

New They took 2 sorting machines from Pontiac
The bar code printing machines in Detroit were running at capacity. They're adding shifts to handle the volume and taking machines away at the same time. Doesn't seem reasonable.

They're also talking about removing parcel handling machinery which seems ridiculous on the face of it given the upcoming holiday season on top of the much higher package delivery volume from the pandemic.

Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.
New Stop lying
The machines they're taking away were underutilized. Boxley said so. WDYHASM?

New To be fair, that's what the union reps are saying.
But having seen a direct effect on our mail delivery here, I don't doubt it.
