Thank you US Postal Service employees.



Your work environment surely is anything but great right now but you're doing an admirable job just the same. I receive ninety day supplies of several prescription meds via the US mail. They are sent regular mail, not express. None have arrived after the expected date. In fact I received one Rx yesterday (Friday) that had an expected delivery date of next Tuesday. You folks are doing great considering your top brass is trying to make life as difficult as they can for you. Please hang in there. Things will improve in January.

I thanked her profusely and told her we were behind her and USPS.

Weeks later, next time I happened to be out there when she came, the first thing she said was, 'I got your note. Thank you!'

They are the original silent service.

With the long view Moron did the USPS a big favor. He gave us a wet mop in the face just how vital its work is.

Some of my mail has gone missing. It's mostly been things things that can be fixed like new cards when the old ones expire, etc. I can usually fix it by going to the bank or just using other cards, but it really undermines my faith.

Hubby and I plan to go in early and mask up to vote because we can.

I just want my mail to go like before. I want to trust it.

refuses to leave my mail on the bench at the end of my sidewalk.
i have told him repeatedly, but the other day he attempted to come up w the walk, maskless, while i was sitting right there. after i yelled at him, he tossed my package on the ground.
i told him if he did it again, he would be met by my guard dog.
so he put a hold on my mail cuz i threatened HIM.
he threatens his whole route.

i have talked to this kid REPEATEDLY.

i have a regulation mail box on the way, which should solve the problem. but jeez.
the number of ppl on my block who dont care if i die has made me awful sick of people. and i used to love people.
