I know why....government ran. In the last two weeks I have ordered two separate items online and both retailers shipped them via USPS. I tracked both items that they were held up for days with no updates on tracking. One of the items showed up to my door and the tracking was not updated until the next day, stating it was still on the truck.

I received an email from USPS for the second package stating they made an attempt to deliver at 7:30 pm Thursday night.....no you did not. I responded to the email the deliver today and it was at my front door Saturday afternoon.

I order numerous items online every month. FedEx and UPS are always on track.....I really wish USPS would go under.

My experience is just the opposite. I use USPS almost weekly and never had a problem. Fed Ex has been inconsistent.

if a package goes missing or is delayed there is an 80% chance it came via usps. i dont even know why they bother with their tracking feature. it's always messed up.

What? A government run organization doesn't run as efficiently nor as customer friendly as a private corporation?

But we're going to vote in a Democrat again for the President.

Sounds like you forgot to get your mail carrier a Christmas gift.

Is Newman your mailman? He rents space of a storage locker, may want to get tough with him.

Yeah, I think you're full of shite and this story is a lie. I have a brother and two friends that are USPS employees and they don't attempt deliveries at 7:30 at night. Doesn't happen. Maybe you added an extra "s" by accident and you meant UPS

Years ago, I had my transcript over night to a university via UPS. It got there two weeks later via Fed ex. Ups said they couldn't locate the address and I was in disbelief because they probably deliver hundreds of packages there every day. It took them 13 days or so to return it to the community college and the lady there personally paid for fed ex to deliver it over night because she felt bad for me. Bless her heart. I've also had Fed ex mess up too though. They all frick up from time to time, but that was my worst experience ever.
