Why?(2)

[MailGuru]

to borrow from another conundrum, why is the color accuracy of a printed piece always inversely proportional to it's importance?

Direct mail advertising is a lot like that. Have you ever received a piece in the mail and thought to yourself: "Man, this is a GREAT offer, and, coincidently, I AM in the market for a new vehicle PLUS, they are giving away a prize. I'd sure like to go, but, do you see where the color is a little washed-out in the lower left-hand corner? That's it, I'm not going.........

WHY must the US Postal Service over-complicate the regulations for things that are trivial or insignificant?

(Really, is there ANY difference between the maximum height for a letter-size single-sheet postcard at 6 and 1/8 inches versus the maximum height of a letter-size folded self-mailer or booklet at 6 inches. Why not make them both 6-inches, or, both 6 and 1/8 inches)?

Why is it that the pro-bono or donated jobs are the most difficult customers?

Ok, here's a classic that has forced mankind to ponder the endless "why's":

Why do hot dogs come 10 to a package, but, hot dog buns only come 8 to a package?

Because the bun makers figure that you will drop at least 2 of the dogs into the coals...
