So our beloved Postal Service is losing thousands daily because they are incompetent and unionized to the nth degree so they want us to cough up more money.
The latest is a new charge if UPS or FedEx drops a package off at the post office for you. I live in the country and have no mailbox to get ran over or destroyed on purpose. I also have an electric gate because for twenty years or more there was no one home during the day. We live three miles out of town and my wife passes the PO twice a day so no biggie to have a PO box. Now, the PO is charging postage on packages as if they were sent parcel post ! All they have to do is accept the package from whatever carrier it was shipped with, then hand it to you but they are charging as if it rode on gubment trucks and went through all the postal hoops. In essence you’re paying shipping twice, but only getting it once. Typical gubment crap ! It’s fairly unhandy for us to have packages sent straight to our house but that’s what has to happen now. Today we have a shipment of insulin hanging out somewhere that may or may not get here on time. Sheesh !
