Hehe, I see the Postmaster General is at it again. You can see Bluefront's previous work
here.
I posted the following and much more in that thread. It was a fine example of people who know nothing diagnosing and solving problems about which, if they had a hand in, they would only make worse:

This is truly hilarious. It reminds me of the elephant in the dark. This long muscular thingi with air going in and out needs to be redesigned to service eight mailboxes. Two of these large pillar like things need to be removed. They are redundant and not cost effective. This letter sorting machine needs to be brought into the twentieth century. It's running on hay. This glue from the machine for the application of adhesives to envelopes needs to be considerably thickened. It's way too runny and tastes like piss. We need to stop standing under and pulling our ideas out of this large cavity under the employee whip. We're getting covered with Sh1t and our ideas smell correspondingly.
Gentlemen, and ladies, but I don't see any of those here. The Postal Service is a huge organization. It's profoundly complex. Thousands of informed man hours are going into managing and improving its operation. Go referee a baseball game. There at least the rules are sufficiently simple that you will have a chance to grasp them with some modicum of effort. Also, you will have a group of enthusiasts to comment and provide feedback on your performance. Right now you are just whistling out your asses
I know the truth hurts, and I just hate it when people come by and say something like "you're a moron" so, because the topic is quite boring, and I don't want to waste my time refuting every point, I'll take just one. Three day delivery. Look at the Mississippi. How inefficient that it flows along in it's banks 24 seven. How about we have it run 3 days a week. And so on. Pick a subject you know something about.

My theory is that Bluefront failed the Postal Exam and that?s why he's bitter. He can't explain how people fresh off the boat pass with flying colors.
But it's only a theory. people get irrational for all kinds of reasons.
The real joke is that the Postal Service is mandated by law to break even over time. They shoot for a profit in year one, break even in year two and a loss in year three of the normal rate cycle. Looks like they will make enough at first to not start loosing money for four instead of three years. That means we will not pay more for an extra year. Wow, what a rip off huh?
Bluefront, why don't you take up knitting. You'd be more productive and if you get really wound up you could always st@b yourself in the leg for an outlet. Oh and be sure to forward your ideas to the Postmaster General. He's waiting on pins and needles for your suggestions on how things SHOULD be run.
