Government agencies always have the attitude that you need them and they don't need you, albeit that you do run into quality people often enough. <br><br>Generally speaking though, isn't it Amazing they still haven't gotten the message that they need to be a service business at the least if they want to survive. Yet, they still send their counter people on lunch and breaks at the very times when the most number of customer (who are in a hurry) are there - because they are on Their lunch break. Amazing. <br><br>Truly, it exemplifies the waste, non-excellence and pathetic nature of union run entities. Generally speaking of course.Kidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05287399775879832602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-32894214435191612132011-11-21T01:28:25.284-05:002011-11-21T01:28:25.284-05:00I was just thinking about this last week as I went...I was just thinking about this last week as I went to the P.O. Why do we continue having this service? And why are parts of it still supported by our tax dollars?<br><br>I was standing in line [notice this is how ALL government agencies are with long waits] and was noticing that, like other government agencies, there were like 4 windows that could be opened to speed things along. Plus, they had one window dedicated to Passports. How often do people need passports?!?!? And then we had like 3 windows open and all 3 were busy with dumb dumbs standing there chatting it up and laughing with the cashier. I couldn't help but feel so frustrated and just wishing that we could abolish this garbage right that second. And the parking? Don't even get me started...the workers have all the room to park their cars and their vans but none of the spaces were open for us customers. And the whole street in front of the Post Office here in Carson is painted red for no reason even though there is very little traffic. The whole place is a mess. Any government agency is a mess.ndh777http://www.blogger.com/profile/04678661187765064528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-87692817423554885182011-11-20T15:52:50.870-05:002011-11-20T15:52:50.870-05:00Woman, UPS will bring them right to your door :)Yo...Woman, UPS will bring them right to your door :)<br><br>You too!Kidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05287399775879832602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-36997638474820582022011-11-20T10:44:58.861-05:002011-11-20T10:44:58.861-05:00hey I shop and get packages all the time..ha hope ...hey I shop and get packages all the time..ha hope you are having a super weekend my friend~!.:)WomanHonorThyselfhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17211851365273181636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323117222166894889.post-31265828059572204702011-11-19T23:39:34.191-05:002011-11-19T23:39:34.191-05:00Kid:My ex-bro-in-law was a postal carrier.

Imagine being in That meeting and keeping a straight face.<br><br>The only thing I have against them is this idiotic union attitude that they can just roll along like it's 1964, the economy is rocking, and all will be well. Let's not even bother talking about their walk in counter services..<br><br>They could be competitive and provide a great working environment for their employees, but Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo.<br><br>We used to dinner occasionally with some liberal friends and he is a post office senior employee/carrier.
