Here is why we are broke.

As much as I hate to say, there is just no mail anymore. I can be gone for a week and not even have to worry about putting my mail on hold anymore!
 
I talked to some city carriers about how their routes are adjusted. Most of them have not had evaluations in 3 to 4 years. They are on average about half the size of our rural routes.

since city carriers are paid hourly, and not given a specific time at a stop at each box, there are ways to keep their routes 8 hours. for example not cutting lawns. And not "running" their routes. And if they don't have mail for a house but the house has outgoing they still get "paid" for walking up to their house. for mounted, they can pull up to a box, stop and finger every piece a mail, it is not timed.
