That sort of logic is everywhere now.

I just saw the story about the USPS threatening to close a lot of regional and local offices. They cited the lack of foot traffic coming into the local stations with the shift towards buying postage online.
A couple weeks ago I had several packages to mail. I brought them into my local office and was in the process of paying th epostage for everything when the branch manager happened to be near the counter. She started giving me a load of crap saying that next time they want me to pay the postage online before bringing the packages in. I brought some more in today and she got a little testy with me again. I asked her what her motive was as it seems counter to what they should be looking for. I asked her if she was for laying off the mail handlers and closing branches? She got pissed and stormed off.
The mail handler waiting on me laughed and said I was absolutely right.
