Oh, wait, we can give trillions of dollar in bailout money to the very institutions that caused the financial collapse. Doesn't make sense does it? Anyways, the old postmen an postwomen are already set up for life and the closures won't effect them. Also, congress sets the postal rate, not USPS, otherwise it'll cost a $1 to mail an envelope but the post office would be solvent. It's just that a few of the long time counter people at the Waikiki branch are bozos. I've told the person waiting in line behind me, you can go, I no like this counter person.RONWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10685861839372504999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1861755739015456730.post-55488003357692772262011-07-27T01:50:58.188-10:002011-07-27T01:50:58.188-10:00I have a soft spot in my heart for the Hanamaulu o...I have a soft spot in my heart for the Hanamaulu one. It's so old school - tucked inside an old wood building with one wooden counter. Saw some comments on a HI news site that it's actually used -- and the Lihue and Kapaa branches are already overloaded so adding the traffic from one more site will be bananas. I think they want us all to start shipping things online. That's what we do now. Print out a label, slap it on, and some guy shows up the next day to take it from me -- and the cost is discounted because I did it all myself.Ann da Sistahttp://nateisgreat.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
