Post office workers make 25 dollars an hours

The minimum wage in America is 7.25 an hour

I was talking to this lady today and she told me that her mother has been working at the post office for 8 years, and she said that her mother makes 41 dollars an hour.

The average postal worker makes 25 dollars an hour.

If you work in the warehouse sorting mail you make 25 dollars an hours.

You don't need a college degree, you don't even need a high school diploma to work at the post office. You don't need any special talent or skill to work at the post office.

If the post office can pay their workers 25 dollars an hour, how is it that these companies are complaining about paying their workers more than 7.25 an hour.

They can pay it because the postal service runs up billion dollar deficits for years. Private sector companies can't do that. They'd go out of business.
What covers the deficit is government subsidy. Private sector companies get no subsidies if they run billion dollar deficits.
So in a way, the tax payer is subsidizing the salary.

American companies are all about greed, they ship jobs out of the country for cheap slave labor. Most of the technology companies in America gets their products outside the country, because they want cheap labor.

The postal service took a $5 billion loss in 2015.
Losing money has become a bit of a tradition at USPS, which now has strung together nine losing years in a row. Whereas the other companies paying minimum wage are profitable. I haven't seen their books but it doesn't look like the USPS can afford to pay their people what they are paying them

This reply is not very, bright, as it is a very nitwitted reply. That's Since postal worker salaries are EXACTLY independent of USPS Revenues and do not correlate to each other, whatsoever. No matter what deficit USPS operates within, it is not going to affect pay rates nor pay grades of postal workers.

So yes, do Learn how to focus and concentrate only on the issue being asked about.

If you get a chance go read their financials. You will see that labor is -78% of their costs

You can read here about they plan to cut labor costs in order to get to profitability

This might be over his head. Some of these folks here depend on the gubment for their income. They have no clue how a modern economy operates.

oh There is no "might" as this was EXACTLY over the head of you hi-yellow sissified dudes.

Thats since this thread is all about the great hourly wage which postal workers enjoy ----just like I commented on to Jaffe, where he posted irrelevancies. And his links are further, irrelevancies, since none of those pages have anything to do with USPS cutting back on their niiiice hourly wage-rates which this thread theme focuses on and which I focused on in my first post to Jaffe here.

Maybe if you were a bit more, intelligent, you would have got keen to that without my assistance.
