Nothing.
Just like all of your other posts. They contain too nothing.
Crickets huh? Fifty billion dollars in savings to the USPS might get pretty loud. The crickets part might be the sound of the UPS and Fedex belts that aren't running because the post office has reclaimed market share.

Your thread is a nothingburger.
It's not my fault you can't comprehend why that is. Let me help to get you caught up with reality...
50 billion in "savings", 49.6 billion of it from pushing retirees onto Medicare, and removing the mandate to prefund pensions. That's the kind of fake "savings" you get from these (pseudo) governmental agencies.
You're not going to see operational changes from this, it's just politically clever math so they can show profit on paper.

And pray tell, how exactly is the USPS "reclaiming market share"?
Honestly Smartpost is crap. There is no money being made on it. I don’t think FedEx would care much.
The only reason FedEx or UPS takes packages like that is because they are promised a certain amount of regular packages that they can make some money off of

nowhere special
They only hope to break even on those packages. Increases stop density making other packages more profitable.

Thanks for the laugh.
We'll see who's laughing at the end. The bill absolves the USPS from having to fulfill prepaid pension and healthcare obligations decades in advance. It also establishes performance standards including the retention of the standard 6 days a week service. So you they me parcel industry expert .....why do you think that these measure will not improve the standing of the USPS?
Being that you're just a package handler every package the USPS reclaims means one less package going down the belt for you to pull off and load which could mean that you won't always get your 25 hours a week.
Furthermore, the changes you speak of are what? They're savings that can be used to meet the service improvements that will be required .
Smart Post does help to fill in quite a number of empty rural miles . Might not make anything but it might help to pay the cost of running all those millions of sparsely populated rural America miles.

What an ignorant post.
Typical for you.
UPS can barely handle the volume they have.
You don't have any idea what you're talking about little lady.

They're working 7 days a week, and you think mandating that they work at least 6 days a week is going to take volume away from competitors...
What are you smoking?
Their express operation runs 7 days a week. Standard service to all zip will remain 6 days.
The thing I noticed about you is that you NEVER make an original post. Always offering nothing but responses simply for the sake of making a response.. Ones that offer the same pointlessness and lack of insight. Now if the rest of us didn't post original content that would have nothing to do . Important since you package handlers only get normally 25 hours tops.
Now being that you're the most well informed package handler on this site, I'm surprised that you failed to notice ( not the first time) that under the bill the USPS will be free to offer just about any other product and or service for which they can get state and or federal approval provided that it's profitable to do so. There's also something else you failed to observe.
AT ONE TIME THE US POSTAL SERVICE WAS A BANK!
That's right. It was at one time a banking services company. Pretty limited in what it could offer but it did offer them.
If they can get approval to return and expand those services you might just see your local post office someday becoming a one stop shipping, banking and financial services center. Been talked about for quite some time.
So when the floor of your house trailer rusts out and you have to get something better perhaps your loan might just be obtained from the US Postal Service.
Yes, I made a typo. Saw it too late. It was meant to say...."you tell me". And we catch yours as well and while not often you do from time to time have some very insightful information to offer.

Whiney little lady asks a question and then attacks people when she doesn't get an answer she likes. Ridiculous.
