I ordered a product from Amazon. It was shipped Priority Mail - 3 day shipping on October 1. I got the package on October 11. I went by my local post office to ask them about the shipping, the gal was very flippant when she said, “It’s not guaranteed that you’ll get it in 3 days. It’s the new norm.” SMH. I guess the new norm is the post office have now become thieves by selling a service that is not true. Just annoying.

And people want government healthcare! They can’t even run a post office or DVM, why would you want care where your life is on the line from the same people???
Interesting story. I went to DMV to get license plate tags for the new year. Long lines, people around looking miserable (except for the boot lickers, who love being treated like shit).
So, I went to the info person and asked how long it should be. She gave me a very dismissive non-answer, and told me covid was to blame. I told her that covid was a scam and they were using it to be lazy ... so ... how long can I expect this to take?
She got pissy (great "customer service, eh?), and refused to answer. But she did let it slip, due to her irritation at my question, that maybe I should just go to AAA if I don't like the wait.
To which I replied, "Huh?" She said I could go to AAA. "You mean the roadside assistance company?" She said yeah, they do DMV stuff, too.
So, I found there was a AAA office within 10 minutes of where I was, so I went there.
Walked in the door, pleasant service (even asked if I would like some coffee while I waited the 2 minutes), and back out the door with my tags. All under 10 minutes, 15 tops.
Wow this is awesome information
Our DMV is appointment only unless you move from out of state during election season. If you want to transfer your license from another state and register to vote during election season then come on in! And yeah, AAA is the way to go. Ours have self service kiosks for registration. I think to do title stuff then you need to see a human at AAA. It's a $3 processing fee but since DMV is booking 90 days out, well worth the cost!
Post Office has always been a "Fuck-You-If-You-Don't-Like-It" organization.
That's what you get from government services.
Pay more and have a real company deliver it.
Yes, it is a scam. Pay for priority and get it in 6 days.
The incompetence of the Biden administration has trickled down to all government agencies and many service industries. Just another part of the playbook to bring down the country.
DeJoy is destroying the Post Office. Trump is pretty perfect, but this is def one of his biggest mistakes in appointing him to run the Post Office. Guy has his own shipping company, so his goal is to destroy it. Almost every post officer delivery man I know is a hard core patriot and they detest him. Sheep in wolfs clothing.
Don't accept Post Office problems. Let THEM own it.
If you haven't received your 3 day Priority package after 3 days, contact Amazon and report the package potentially stolen, then cancel the order for an immediate refund.
When the Post Office tries to deliver it 2 or 3 days later, send it back and refuse to receive it. After enough people start doing that, the Post Office may decide that it's not YOUR problem anymore. Also, the sellers will start shipping using other alternatives.
They don't give a shit.
They don't care about customer service. Period.
They are a government agency, and get bailed out by Congress on a regular basis, to the tune of many billions of dollars.
Amazon gets special low pricing from them that nobody else gets.
Why would they give a shit about a few cancelled orders?
Just don't use USPS at all, except where there is no other option.
Actually I heard long ago that the USPO was owned by the British Crown.
This is who are in charge of our ballots.
Sign up for informed delivery on USPS website. You get an email every day with a picture of every letter and even junk mail. Also text message and emails on packages. Even if I don’t get junk I mark it as not received. Also get your local post phone number. I was having so many problems with my mail carrier. I was getting other peoples mail and my box was never shut. When I called they gave me an email address so I bombarded him with pictures. Thankfully she retired. That’s been over two years and they haven’t replaced her. Two women are running this route after they finish their route. I wasn’t ordering a lot of packages back then. When Covid started that’s when I started ordering all the time. I order all my house supplies. I’m not taking up for the post office! Big packages should not be shipped USPS. That’s what UPS & FedEx are for. That’s the fault of the seller. I ordered from target last week and it came FedEx. I don’t like ordering from target but they are cheaper on things like tissues and kitchen stuff like foil & bags.
Dropped off pkg to be returned Sept 9. After picked up at post office no online info about pkg. never delivered and now I’m out 90.00. When I asked them what to do they were flippant about it. They suck
Mailed some letters in January, they were returned in August as undeliverable.
3 day shipping by the USPS? You gotta be kidding! KEK
