The US postal service is an absolute joke.

I just thought I would throw that out there. They piss me off. I have regular scheduled delivery of large packages and somehow they manage to fuck everything up. Every damn time. I end up having to chase down the carrier to get my stuff of get it at the post office before they leave with it.

Are you saying free market solutions are typically better than government, centrally planned ones?!

yep.. they even will pick your stuff up from your dang house for free
they beat the shit out of both UPS and FedEx. FedEx is alright for really large/heavy stuff - its a bit cheaper than USPS sometimes in that case. But I hate going to FedEx its a fuckin' pain in the ass.
USPS is the shit for a business that mails lots of items daily
That said, they have gotten a bit shitty towards their employees in recent years. Super overworked, and most new hires are like temp workers that don't get all the benefits of actual employees.

They lose my packages or just fail to attempt to deliver every week. It doesn't fail. For that they suck.

It's not a good deal if you have to chase down the lazy carrier because he couldn't be bothered to deliver your package to the door like hes supposed to when it's a Cash On Delivery package.

I love USPS. I've been mailing shit all over the world for the last five years as a part of my business. I've never had a single lost or damaged package.
The USPS is also financially extremely successful, most people don't realize this.

Do you do COD shipments? That's where you buy something online and hand cash to the postal worker and they ship the money to whoever sold the something to you. I do COD every week and somehow they lose my packages, send it out for delivery when I request that it be held at the post office or vice versa.
