USPS strikes again..

[Catt57]

Nothing like meaningless updates..

And for a piece of unobtanium no less... A part i have spent 5 years looking for.

Neither rain, nor sleet nor storm nor dark of night.... no guarantee of time frame or reporting of package status...

Cliff Claven still fulfilling his oath...

I am a retired USPS worker, here is the problem in a nutshell. They are giving priority to Amazon packages...period. By law 1st class mail is not to be intentionally delayed...but it is daily, because they are critically dependent on Amazon for revenue to even function, and Amazon DOES have standards they monitor and USPS is required to maintain them. The standards the USPS are required to fulfill BY LAW are ignored daily. The rocket scientists that run the USPS ignored the internet, smartphones, and email and just kept building BILLIONS of dollars worth of machinery to sort magazines and letters which dwindled to almost nothing nowadays. Meanwhile we have this MASSIVE network of machinery and plants that need to kiss Amazon's ass while the average postal customer gets screwed. Coming or going my packages now stop in Tulsa for about a week before proceeding. The last 2 Priority packages I Paid extra to arrive in 3 days took 12 and 15. Your priority pkg with your meds in it will NOT be delivered on Sunday but your 2 dollar piece of crap from Amazon will.

Anyone up for a cup of coffee?

Can I add whiskey to it?

More the reason I pay extra to avoid USPS when the option is available during a purchase.

I have noticed TEMU is using USPS for most if not all items from abroad. And all packages seem to have been opened. For inspection I presume. They seem to be getting good service from USPS so far as I can tell.

Yes, because Chinese parcels are subsidized by US taxpayers.
