An opportunity to waste money, harm the environment, put your kids at risk, AND increase labor costs? Republicans are all over it.

    Yeah, that’s quite an improvement for the company. How do the new ones improve the life of mail carriers specifically?

        They’re also tall enough to stand in for many folks which is a huge plus.

      Much better cargo capacity and organization?

        Why are you asking me, I’m the one that asked it in the first place.

          Those were obviously rhetorical question marks.

          The information you’re pretending to be interested in is readily available in the article above and elsewhere.

            From OC:

            Those things, from what I heard, are an absolute necessity of an upgrade for postal workers.

            emphasis mine.

            You’re acting like it is obvious what they heard, and I shouldn’t ask for details of what looks like first hand reports of usage of the new vehicles.

            So go fuck yourselves and the high horses you rode in on.

              Just FYI a comment isn’t an article, you gotta click on the link at the top of the page and read the article, which is what he’s suggesting you read. That’s where you can find the details.

                I cannot make it any clearer: I am interested in @AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 's account. He said he heard opinions about the new cars, I suppose it’s from drivers. I’d love to hear more. From AceFuzzLord. Or did they write the article?

                  He read it in the article that was posted is what we’re all saying. Why don’t you read it? That’s what his comment was referring to, because he commented on the article. Hope this helps!

              Strong words from someone who can’t open an article to confirm.

                Weak words from someone with 2nd grade reading comprehension.
