Postal service cutbacks could affect customers

Postal service cutbacks could affect customers - Midstate PA Local News, Weather, Sports & Entertainment - PennLive.com: "Although more people prefer e-mail to snail mail and more businesses are likely to fax than ship, the mail -- what remains of it -- has to be delivered six days a week. The U.S. Postal Service expects to end the year with a decline of 9 billion pieces of mail versus last year.

In a press release, Postmaster General John Potter said the best way to cope is to reduce work hours. That could take several forms, including fewer staff working fewer hours."
