I just bought a new book of stamps the other day. Ain't that grand.

Ah well...a frivolous complaint I guess.

This pisses me off so much. The only thing I use the post for anymore is for bills/thank you cards and sending poo to people.

They're just passing on the cost of ammo.

I'm more pissed that certified mail is going up again.

Fucking pricks---the cost of tracking down deadbeats seems to go up all the damn time.

Now you tell me. Tues I was trying to buy a book of stamps from the grocery store, and she insisted the price had already gone up. I believed her, so the shit I had to go thru that day to get my (late) bills mailed is unbelievable. I finally had to mail them after work & pay fitty cents a stamp. UUUUUrrrrrrghhh!! :evil:

I understand the Pist Office is running in the black now, too, fuckers. Oh, well- even at 50 cents it's a good deal, really.

It's still cheaper than Fed-ex or driving it there yourself.

I ain't complaining. Maybe it will cut down on some of the junk mail.

USPS rocks, because they are cheap and are pretty much self-sufficient. I know they get tax money for a few special services, but for the most part they don't suck on the big fat government teat.

Weird that I hadn't heard about this until now. For the first time I'm not hosed with a ton of stamps in hand, though...I've only got a dozen.

I don't have any beef with the USPS, really - matter of fact, I wish they'd just make the rate 50 cents & stop with the increases for a few years.
