I know it takes 12 days for my mail to get to our state capital about 120 miles away when there are no holidays or weather issues. I know my neighbors and I get each others mail in our box at least once a week. I know that half my envelopes arrive open. I know they leave a card in my box to pick up a package at the post office when the package is the size of a deck of cards. I know it costs me about $40.00 to mail just about any package anywhere. My mother in law complains about the cost of stamps all the time, I dont even care about that - I just want them to do their job! Another agency that needs torn down and rebuilt from the ground up.
I have an old friend who retired from USPS about 5 years ago - she warned me that they were hiring workers to monitor people's incoming and outgoing mail and she suspected also emails. Whole groups of people were hired that were not doing "regular" postal worker duties and it was pretty hush hush. Anyway - she moved away and I didnt have room for another "conspiracy theory" in my brain but I think about it sometimes.
OH their Union came out for them last time! Can we even trust the mail? One reason I always voted in person on Election Day!
We can't trust that we will even be able to get to the polls on election day anymore due to "weather" etc.

During and after covid, I got notices after notices of bills not paid that I had mailed ON TIME! The old reliable Post Office FAILED us!

There was a lot posted about the Post Office concerning the stolen election. How can we trust any federal agency at this point?!? so sad.
