I purchase a bike online. It was shipped from SoCal to NorCal on a Tuesday, arrived at the hub four miles from my house on Thursday evening. I got it Monday afternoon because they had no one to unload the truck for three days.

Finally got my package. Exactly one month late.

It's like we're back in time 50 years. "Please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery".

I think that the USPS has set a new record. My wife received a birthday card from her friend in GA. It was mailed on Feb. 21 and it came in the mail yesterday. That is THREE Months and two days.

And today USPS delivered an empty shipping bag that had the bottom sliced off. No telling if the sorting machine ate it, someone along the route decided to see what was inside and take it or any number of other possible events. What is incomprehensible is why any package handler in the chain thought it made sense to move a clearly empty bag on to the next location. I know my mail carrier is incompetent because he has a habit of delivering my mail to other houses on my street and their mail to me but he outdid himself today.

Has to be the shittiest stupid post office in the history of stupidity and shit.

The on-time delivery rate went up from 36% to just a bit more after the senatorial investigation and his threats of firing the Postmaster.

Now your wife will get the card in two months.

UPS is no bueno! Time sensitive 27k$ meds supposed to be overnighted are on a whirlwind journey through the system. Now supposed to be delivered Monday. Finally got hold of a human rep who is trying to get them to me today. We will see.
