first class postage to be $2.
What kind of sane person would pay $2 to mail one piece of paper? That is absurd.

Friend,

A person with good manners is more than willing to pay $2 to have someone deliver a letter to another. That is such a paltry amount considering the time and coordination required To have a courier pick up correspondence from your home and deliver it to a friend’s home. FedEx charges nine dollars for the same service except you have to bring that letter to one of their pickup locations.

The United States postal service has long hair price is well below what they should be. I urge you to write to Congress asking that postage prices be increased if you hope for higher quality service. You cannot demand to pay Domino’s prices and expect Lucali quality.

Yours,
TulaneLSU

And votes were mailed and received the same day. Should have marked vote for Democrats on envelope.

We both know with what’s on their current payroll an increase in service isn’t going to happen. The same way you’ll never get your Chicken correct at Popeyes no matter how correct the building look.

My Mom has a package that has been “in transit” from the Birmingham distribution center to her local post office (only like 12 miles from Birmingham) for two weeks. In transit, for a 12 mile trip, for two weeks. It’s a “priority mail” package, too, but that designation obviously doesn’t matter.

I have actually tried to find some kind of anti-USPS PAC to which I might contribute. As far as I can tell, such a thing does not exist, but if it did I would give as much as I could afford. I mean thousands, maybe even tens of thousands, right off the bat.

Next time you’re in a post office, look around at who’s working behind the counter

Happy to say my long lost Christmas stamps were delivered this morning. Now 42 of the 60 are en route to their intended recipients.

I’ve had one package stuck on PA since 11/30. I have another that is stuck in Irving in transit since 12/5. I seriously doubt I ever see either package.

I ran out of stamps so I went to the PO yesterday. I bought the ones out of the machine instead of waiting at the counter line. I now have 40 Christmas stamps that I will be using year round.
