Didnt' realize so many OT'ers work for the USPS or are over the age of 70.







I realize you're apparently shocked by this, but 18.5 billion pieces of mail went out in 2017 with an actual postage stamp on it. The number is declining quite a bit, but it's still a crazy volume.

tht's 50M stamps a day. i find it hard to believe 1 out of 6 people in the US put a stamp on an envelope every day of the year. I just don't believe that.

I get a lot of shite in the mail everyday. outside of the few bills, it's all worthless crap, and not a single thing i get in the mail has an actual stamp on it. They all have a printout that says "first class mail presorted paid" of some sort. If they are counting that as a stamp, then i'll believe that 18B number.
