Australia Post putting off about 900 workers

[lowanacrafts]

Just heard this morning that AP are puting off about 900 workers , mainly in Sydney and Melbourne,

And also going to cut down normal delivery to 2-3 times a week.

Now items will take longer to get delivered, if not express.  not sure when this will start,  but thats 900 less jobs.

Not surprising though, they are getting worse. I had heard rumours from my local country store.

I live in the country, and still lucky enough to get mail every day. But only post 3 times a week, as my postie can't take any mail.

Having a lovely break at the moment, no sellers stress, but back to selling next week.

And I believe can get deals through Startrack, although I don't know if they deliver to Post Offices without a surcharge these days.

Not sure where the rest of my post went........

I confirmed that Startrack still leaves packages at Post Offices without the payment of a surcharge as they are part of Australia Post.

Have a look at the Startrack vehicles....they have the P logo in blue and are known as Blue Post in the industry.

That's what I thought, but I wasn't sure.
