Did anybody say the change was being put in effect to save money?
If that is the case, what none of us know is how many USPS employees are fully utilized. There could be excess employment due to automation or lower utilization because of newer technology. So the answer could be as simple as get rid of contractors and use under utilized personnel already on the payroll.
There are not too many other scenarios justifying the change on economics....unless there is an element of load up the existing personnel work load and let the service quality fall where it may.
We shall soon experience the results of the change.
Then we can speculate anew....again!!
