re: USPS should be required by law or EO to produce dashcam footage of "delivery attempts"

Move to an area with better demographics you won’t have a problem.

Usps doesnt get your tax monies to operate.

bullshite. How do you explain them continuing to operate being billions in the red year after year? What happens to that debt? They have to “borrow” that money from the treasury each year to cover their losses….and that's taxpayer money that never gets repaid.

I sold it on ebay and that was the shipping selected.
The box it was in was crushed and the plastic body was destroyed. I had it packed in peanuts, foam, bubble wrap and paper.
It was obviously thrown from a height.

5-6 times a year. I have cameras. When confronted The day, date and time are all lies…. the fact it was delivered somewhere precludes them admitting it was mis-or non delivered.

It's the govt, they don't do anything well.

USPS sucks. Wouldn't use unless I had to. Use UPS most of the time and while they are not without fault, they are better than FedEx and USPS.

But, they did smash the case of my new Stingray bass I traded for the other day. Thankfully the case did its job, but it looks like crap now.

Why do we have to pay $1 per $100 value to declare a value and get extra insurance for them to DO THEIR frickING JOB? That is the service they offer. When I pay the shipping fee, I expect the package to be on time, intact, and damage free. I'll give some wiggle on the "on time", but it has to be intact and damage free. Shouldn't have to pay them not to destroy my stuff. I'm already paying them.

Rant ON [OFF]

My small business has 1000-2000 packages in and out through USPS every month.

I use USPS for everything possible since FED EX is an outright disaster. Tons of completely lost packages, so many more that I pay extra hours to my employees to finally locate and all at usually double the cost of USPS.

UPS or DHL are much better than FED EX but expensive. For shipments out, customers almost never choose them over USPS.


USPS is very rough around the edges but since my business is so dependent on them I've spoken to local postmasters numerous times about problems.

Tacking issues like packages marked "delivery attempted" and "delivered" often boils down to lack of scanners available for each delivery driver to have one. So, packages are scanned by guesswork like "delivered" when they are loaded onto the truck, for example.


In talking to local postmasters these are the main issues they continually air to higher ups /Postmaster General:


1) lack of working equipment like scanners
2) at the same time many zip codes are rapidly increasing in population and the amount of packages being handled is tripling, post office space/branches is being decreased and staff is being cut or, at best, kept the same


There's currently a giant smear campaign against USPS and I'm not optimistic it won't work since Amazon, Walmart, Fed Ex have all their lobbying / facebooking weight behind it. Many would say their best ally is the current postmaster general himself.

However, for all its warts, the USPS is not only crucial to Americans-- especially senior citizens-- in rural areas but to hundreds of thousands of American small businesses.

Sadly, the last thing politicians care about is helping American small businesses instead of increasing Amazon shares so the USPS is likely doomed but its demise will be a much more severe step toward the complete corporatization of America than most realize.
