Trust Your Postal Worker? Watchdog Reports Some Using Credit Cards for Fun

Who can you trust these days?

There was a time before 1950 that mail was delivered twice a day.

Been going down hill for a long time. 

Postal workers are unionized, did you know that?

This excellent report by the Washington Post Written by Ed O'Keefe for "Keeping tabs on the Government"

Here is an excerpt from the article.


All told, the mail agency could have saved more than $600,000 in excessive travel costs during fiscal 2009 and 2010 if it had cracked down on non-compliant workers, the report said.
Despite the fraud, the Postal Service cut its travel budget by 17 percent in fiscal 2010 to $94.8 million
Goodness, travel down to $94 million still seems way too much. How many conventions is that? 

This cannot go on.  Read the whole article and get mad.
