USPS rant

[ZGrand]

Tens of thousands in metro Atlanta have packages and mail that is taking weeks to be delivered. Apparently the Post Office opened a new distribution center and something is seriously wrong. On the local news tonight they showed an ariel view of 30+ tractor trailers parked and waiting to get processed. I have a revolver that was shipped Priority Mail from
Florida almost 2 weeks ago that has said "in route to next facility" for days. I'm beginning to think it may not ever get delivered to my local FFL. At least the dealer who shipped it fully insured it.

The post office is first and foremost a government employment program. Any mail or packages delivered are fortunate by products.

Can attest to the problem. Sent 5 certified mail letters with checks in each from an ATL suburb for delivery in Eastern FL. Took 10 days of "en route to next facility" before delivery. Dave_n

Been there, done that. Usually a letter.

After being 11 days late I got it on the 15th.

The box, address, and barcode were perfect.

I just received a W-2 that was mailed 6 weeks earlier. I also just got a political flyer for a candidate for an election that was held 2 weeks ago.
