Japan Post may cut as many as 10,000 jobs: Nikkei

Since many of these postal workers know their way around their respective neighborhoods/ zone of work, why not re-deploy them as couriers for essential items such as food / medicine delivery?

Japan Post should work out a deal with grocery / food industries / pharmacies. In times like these when more people are told to stay at home, they're going to rely on deliveries/couriers.

The postal group needs to cut as many rank and file employees as possible in order for their shareholders to have a nicer cut of steak and smoke a finer brand of cigar because that is how privatization works. There, fixed it.

Good idea Wesley. Think there would be more than enough demand in the home delivery business to take a slice of the action, especially among lots of oldies who trust them.

JP tried to stiff it’s customers so here is the blowback...

Wesley

This is about JP's financial business, not the postmen and women making deliveries.

They found a good excuse, to cut cost, pls expect excuses for non-delivery.
