Something I was thinking about today when I was hiking...I wonder if any USPS mailmen are members on this forum. If so, I wonder how they feel about all our "I hate USPS" threads. hahhaaaha--USPS some times does come through!
I went to the PO this morning and everyone was super helpful and nice and I didnt even have to wait in line!and its true!
It's not April Fools Day anymore....
I'm not foolin', I swear. Overnight delivery for $6.95.

See, there you go. They probably messed up again by misreading the label.
Well for me.....This is the first time they didn't come through for me. No V4L package for me today. My package shipped out on Monday and no package yet. It has never taken this long for me. Talk about a let down when I went to the mailbox this afternoon.
Oh well......there is always tomorrow. IT BETTER BE HERE.

I was sent a package from another forum member who lives across the city from me. It was postmarked March 27th or March 28th.
I got it yesterday.
SAME city.
Take that USPS!

Makes it all the more frustrating knowing how things should be done when they're not.I was sent a package from another forum member who lives across the city from me. It was postmarked March 27th or March 28th.

Man born. That just sucks. Sounds like it would have been easier to MIRL to get your package.
I really think a lot of it simply has to do with where you live and what the people who work in your area are like.
I've been an online retailer for almost 12 years and if there is one thing I've learned: people just have different experiences with various carriers based on their locations.
I rarely have a problem with USPS - I often get my Priority packages in 2 days and never more than 3.
I also like UPS a lot but I have customers who loathe them.
For me personally: I HATE Fedex Express - I have had them lie about attempted deliveries so they could meet their time guarantee and several times I have had them deliver to the wrong address (both wrong number and wrong street). They also pickup from Fedex Kinkos and their drop boxes whenever they damn well please no matter what the posted pickup time is.
Yet, I have customers who SWEAR by Fedex and pay more to use them.

Well, if it helps any... I usually get my packages 2 days after I've ordered.
They are probably wondering WTF is their package from V4L
I haven't had a problem with them.........................................YET!
YET=You're Eligible Too. 8-o
My letter carrier withdrew her restraining order when I showed her what it was. Now she knocks on the door whenever there's an "Extra Special" delivery.
Hubby is a truck driver for USPS!
He understands the frustration many people feel about his employer. He's experienced both sides and tries his best. That's all people are really asking for - do your best - and he's cool with that.
I think my mail lady gripes more about USPS then this forum. It's not so much the employees, it's the system.
I ship out every day and I get surveys from USPS twice a week on how they are doing. If something goes wrong I'm not afraid to tell them. I know the names of all the supervisors and make sure that I mention those names in the surveys. One of the supervisors always forgets to print out the pickup sheets so the carriers know where to pick up from each day. I just mention his name in the survey that he's not giving the carriers the sheets and the next day I have two carriers trying to pick up. They are trying but the system just doesn't work like it should.

No such thing as a "system" or really a "corporation" or "a government".
They're just a collection of people. And it all comes down to every individual doing their job well.
