The pstaol service is a conglomeration of sloth. The pstaol services offers reduced rates for pre-sorting. Almost all mail is pre-sorted anymore. Pre-sorting began in the 80s and I am willing to guess more than a few pstaol big-wigs invested in it heavily and have gotten very rich off of it. The pstaol service raises rates on non-pre-sorted mail to compensate for losses.To me honest, the more I type, the more I think it should be discontinued completely. Get rid of all of them. They are so lazy in the city it is sickening to even have to deal with them. PRI: Public Radio International
