[QUOTE="DPI, post: 1677521, member: 793"] 90% of what goes in my mailbox goes directly in the trash. If the carrier didn't have to put that spam in my mailbox or everyone else's, productivity would go up and errors would go down. So when you say the carrier was stopping anyway, that is incorrect and as time goes by with the availability of doing almost all mailing transactions online that becomes more so everyday. The opportunity cost with spam mail is very expensive. But that is one way for congress to justify postal jobs. I would bet that 1/2 the residential delivered mail is spam. Oh and my post office story, the last package I will ever mail was a couple weeks ago. My wife securely boxed 4 wrapped gifts and one unwrapped gift in one well package and securely taped box. She took it to the post office and had to wait 30 minutes in line for the 3 people ahead of her. She paid and the box was off. A week later the recipient calls and says the box was opened and only 4 items were in there. One was missing, and that was the $150 Spyderco I had purchased for my long time friend's Christmas gift. We had no recourse since insurance was not purchased. [/QUOTE]
