...and whose union has just endorsed Joe Biden for president, claims that it can easily handle mail in voting for the November elections.

Apologies for the CNN link

Sounds like the same issue I had with a letter I was sending out today.

I shipped it 2 day, today with delivery on Thursday. It is three days not 2. Last week, I mailed a payment on Friday 2 day and it gets there today, 2 days, unless they count Sunday.

I got a package today from USPS. I live in North Central Louisiana. The package was mailed from Ohio.

The package was mailed July 2nd and was small enough to be delivered in my mailbox.

It took 32 days for it to get to me. According to Google Maps, you could have walked the package to my house in 10 days and 10 hours.

USPS tracking info says my package arrived at my house 7/23, one day after I ordered it in 7/22. Only problem is I received nothing, and their tracking history shows the order shipped on 7/15, which is a week before I even ordered it. Hmmmm

Not a single time has USPS delivered a package to my house. They leave a pink slip in the mailbox telling me to come and pick up the package myself at the post office.

If you wanted to showcase the bloat and waste of government and you only had one entity to do it with, USPS has to be high on that list.

Hatch Act violation, btw.

It seems like nobody enforces the law anymore.

It's been taking 14-21 days for a letter to travel 20 miles at my work.

Yeah, so no.

Some Dem female quoted on Chad P's page is acting like mail in voting it is a done deal. They did an experiment in PA it was a train wreck. They don't care.

Still don’t understand why taxpayer funded federal organizations are allowed to unionize.

Also not sure why they (the organization not the individuals)are allowed to endorse candidates.

Is USPS the least efficient govt org out there?

Their mail people suck terribly. We get mail 3x/week at our business and we work in the damn city center

If it's OK to burn down federal buildings, why not start here?
