That Was Quick!

Here's proof that someone at L'Enfant Plaza is reading Dead Tree Edition: The erroneous Postal Service Web page I wrote about yesterday was corrected early this morning.

An alert commenter notified me at 4:53 a.m. Eastern time that Susan Plonkey had replaced the disgraced Robert F. Bernstock on the list of USPS executives. That was about 14 hours after the article was posted and about 12 hours after it started being cited by influential sites like Postalnews.com.

The USPS Web site had not been updated when I checked it a few hours before the comment came in, so someone at Postal Service headquarters was obviously burning the midnight oil. Or maybe Bernstock's buddies who got the "Web modernization" contract outsourced the work to Asia.

Now let's hope USPS officials are paying attention to more important issues addressed by Dead Tree Edition, such as the costs of "automation refugees" and employees' difficulties in getting accurate estimates of retirement benefits.

  1. you need to concentrate more on the outrageous management salaries and the fact that when the craft workers are moved no manager loses their position.
