USPS, UPS, FEDEX-DELAYS ACROSS THE BOARD

I sent a check and the envelope was postmarked NOV 12 he and I conversed for a week then I sent him an alternative payment and the check was returned to me on Dec 13th!!! I sent him a picture just to let him know LOL
 
“USPS employees are paid by the United States Postal Service itself, primarily funded through the revenue from stamps, products, and services, not direct taxpayer dollars for day-to-day operations. The USPS is an independent agency, a quasi-governmental entity, that operates like a business, using its own sales to cover salaries, benefits (like health & retirement), and operating costs, while still fulfilling its universal service obligation. ”

I think there’s some tax money that goes to the USPS but it mostly operates as a business, albeit a losing business.
well i guess they aren’t selling enough stamps bc they constantly operate in the red. who pays for that? if it operated as a “business” and didn’t have tax dollars supporting them they would have went out of business long long ago.
 
UPS delivered my Honey Baked Spiral Ham to the neighbor next door. l feel blessed he is honest, hates Christmas. Just loves KOSHER. MERRY CHRISTMAS everybody
 
the one out of the big 3 shippers that pisses me off is the usps. our tax dollars pay their wage 100%. not just this time of year do they suck at their jobs. it’s year round. if they can’t do their jobs they need replaced.

It would be great if you actually told the truth:

I ordered several new smoke detectors for our house to replace those that are now 12 years old (10 year life expectancy and one has failed completely). Anywho, they shipped USPS insured from Los Angeles and arrived in Cincinnati. From Cincinnati they should have come 25-ish miles north to Hamilton. They wound up somewhere in Arizona instead. They finally arrived back in Indianapolis about two weeks ago and that's apparently where they sit. I have asked the vendor for a refund and will contact my credit card company to dispute the charges if the vendor doesn't respond in a couple of days.

I received a scope yesterday from Texas. It went through Indianapolis and I got a sick feeling when I saw it arrive there. But it made it through and arrived on time.

I sent out a scope on Wednesday to PA via USPS. It's supposed to be delivered tomorrow (Monday) but tracking hasn't updated since it left the post office.
Regarding the smoke detectors I mentioned previously, they are still moving in the USPS system. Below are screenshots of tracking. They left Los Angeles, went through Indianapolis to Cincinnati. Then they went to Arizona. Then back to Indianapolis where they apparently camped out for an extended stay. After finally leaving Indianapolis, the package went to Dallas, TX. It has now left Dallas. I wonder where it will land next? It should come to Cincinnati and then to Hamilton and then my house.

After all the unnecessary travels and handling, I wonder what condition these electronic devices will be in IF they ever get to me??

Our town actually put up a Facebook page for misdelivered letters and packages about 3 weeks ago.
For a small town of 23,000 its amazing how many are wrong.
 
Our delivery driver at work, works part-time at UPS, and he said that they average 18-20 thousand packages a day, and they are now seeing 30-thousand plus coming in daily. Drivers can only work 13 hours, and when they get a truckload of 200 delivery points every day, they start coming back with stuff still in their trucks, which apparently gets no priority, it just gets recycled into the next days loading. Kid says one of the head-honchos came down last week and gave everybody a motivational ass-chewing.. which I'm sure improved everybody's attitudes ...
They need to buy these signs for the delivery trucks and lunchrooms:

The beatings will continue....
