#9 Maybe the Post Office plugged in all their new electric vans at once and blew a fuse. Mail delivery here has been retarded lately, in the sense of being slow. We used to get over-night delivery for regional mail. An item dropped off at the village post office was sent 15 miles to the nearest town for sorting and then off to the destination post office for delivery the next day. Now it goes from village to city to Grand Rapids, 150 miles away, for sorting and then back the way it came. Delivery time is now about a week. Perhaps there are economies of scale from sorting in one place. Seems the extra 5 hours drive time and additional handling would negate that. Or maybe mail delivery is just retarded. Hey, what if we build one giant mail sorting center in the geographic center of the United States and route *all* the mail through it. That way, we get the benefits of centralized processing and we only need one sorting machine. Allow me to introduce the Department Of Postal Efficiency - DOPE! |

#8 Sent a letter to an office in Minneapolis. After tracking hung in the Mpls PO for several days, I contacted the company. They said they now go pick up their mail at the PO because "there are delivery issues". |

#6 What is AMAZING? During the 2016 Nov. Election, the USPS managed to delivery every Absentee ballot and then some. 🤔 Hummm! Will the Left/Democrats now claim Trump won because the USPS lost, or did not deliver the 2024 ballots they had pre-printed ?🤔 |

#5 I ordered something. It got to my state and they sent it to another state. It’s crazy. My child ordered something and it got sent to Hawaii before it was sent here. |

#4 32 days after mailing a Certified Letter from Augusta Ga to Duluth Ga. Which is routed thru Atlanta. The USPS tracking # only shows the Augusta post office accepted it. No record or traceability after that. The mgr, it was sent to, said their mail is running months behind and USPS can't explain why? Then she told me she just got a Xmas card from her mom posted back in Dec 2024. |
