The first postal service was the Royal Mail, founded in 1516 by Henry VIII and the first post offices would have been very informal, and probably associated with coach houses. The General Post Office was introduced by Charles II in 1660. The modern idea of a postal service where a fixed fee would pay for postage, regardless of distance was founded by Rowland Hill in 1840 with the uniform penny post service. Before then, the receiver of a letter usually paid for delivery and the amount depended on the distance travelled. The first post boxes were introduced in 1852.Hey answer :location
A very good reason is that postal rates are based on their mass - measured in grams. You can measure the mass in widgets and convert to the units used by the postal service, if you so wish.
Yes and no. In order to become an employee of the Postal Service, with benefits, you must pass the exam pertinent to the position. If you are a veteran, you get veteran's preference, and as long as you score well on the test, you will be hired. As to firing, the postal service cannot just fire at will. Because all positions withing the Postal Service are under the umbrella of a union, it is very difficult for the service to fire an employee. There are grievance procedures, informal step A, formal step A, B team and then pre-arbitration, and finally arbitration hearings that one can go through. Most disciplinary actions, including removal, are remedied prior to arbitration; and very few people end up being removed. This prevents the Postal Service from being called an at willo employer. However, the Postal Service also employees temporary employees, called casuals, who have no benefits, no bidding rights, no seniority, etc. These people can be hired and fired at will because they do not come under the protection of a union. So you see, the answer is both yes and no, depending on the circumstances.
