The 25 Companies Responsible for 700,000 Lost Jobs

Between December 2007 (when the recession officially began) and last month, more than 8 million Americans have lost their jobs, according to the government. Of those job losses, 700,000 stem from layoffs at just 25 companies, according to 24/7 Wall Street’s analysis of data from employment consulting firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

Can someone explain how the United States Postal Service made the list? 15 thousand laid off government workers sounds insane.
