This house was built by a post master in lexington, sc. I can't even imagine how he had the money to build this because i know what post master's make. They make a lot but i don't know about enough to build a million dollar home. This video states that the post office bought this house from an employee. Make no mistakes here. This was not from an employee!!! They bought this house from a Post Master. A manager. The Post Office would not condescend to do anything for its employees or work force that would include giving them 1.2 million dollars!! The postal service constantly blames the work force and the Unions for the down fall of the post office but they are buying million dollar houses from managers who are transferring!!! And voluntarily at that!! This post master took a customer services position in texas. so the higher up powers that be bought his house @ 1.2 million dollars so he could move there. In the process whenever a manager details or tranfers to a new location they are given $20,000 per quarter for per diem. That is the cost of their food, room, and transportation. I don't know about you but i don't ever remember it costing me $20,000 to move. Postal managers detail as much as every 90 days at which they are given an additional $20,000. That is $80,000 extra a year on top of their salary to detail to a position. Here in Amarillo we have a revolving door of post masters and plant managers. can any one of you tell me who the current post master is?? i can barely tell who it is and i work for the amarillo post office!!! In 90 more days there will be a new one and $20,000 more down the drain. Post Master General Potter is asking congress to privatize the post office and let them make it more like a business. We are NOT a business. We are a non-profit organiziation that provides a service for the public. Don't let this happen to the American people. The Unions are not to blame for the post office going under when all they want is for their members to be able to make a good living and provide for their families. They are not looking to get rich by taking perks (like $20,000 for a 90 day detail).
