It's not our fault (Score 1)

The PO is its own worst enemy. From the $1.2B FSS debacle, (which the OIG said was a waste of time and the PO should scrap), to the processing machines that bend every piece of mail which goes thru them. Some mail is not made to be machineable in the manner of letters and postcards. Keys,license plates, pens, CDs, DVDs, 1/2 inch thick payment books, all come to mind. Sure, these should never be in letter sorting machines in the first place. But the PO in its zeal to make itself look good, will cram anything it can thru these machines to keep it's piece count high. The PO mismanagement is too stupid to consider that these things cause jams, stopping the machine, and lowering the piece count. I see broken dvds every day that go thru letter sorting machines at the PO. The feeders sometimes strip the dvd out of the envelope, sorting the empty envelope, leaving the dvd scratched, broken, or on the floor. CDs & DVDs are not made to be bent, but somehow this is Gamefly's fault. They should never be sorted as regular mail, but as packages. http://www.teterboro-online.com/news/news03/usps/dbcs.shtml
