Also there are vending machines that sell stamps, at least there used to be. You should be able to order them online directly from USPS and pay by credit card, and the mailman delivers them to your door.

All three of these options would be independent of your small local post office that may not be well-managed. I'm not sure if it's DeJoy's fault, he probably has no interest in the local post office operations.

I thought Biden replaced some board members so they could remove Dejoy. Nt helpisontheway Feb 2022 #6

It would appear that DeJoy still maintains enough support on the board despite that DetroitLegalBeagle Feb 2022 #9

Why do people imagine that, if Dejoy goes, THEIR local post office will run better. brooklynite Feb 2022 #10

Because DeJoy destroyed a lot of equipment MiniMe Feb 2022 #12

I don't think that is quite accurate. stopdiggin Feb 2022 #17

I think one of his businesses would benefit from the post office going under MiniMe Feb 2022 #19

all of this is true (and familiar) stopdiggin Feb 2022 #23

Simple math: If tRump appointed DeJoy, he is corrupt AF Blue Owl Feb 2022 #26

IT's crazy that Trump was allowed to hand pick Dejoy, but Biden isn't allowed to fire him fescuerescue Feb 2022 #27

Trump DIDN'T appoint DeJoy. The Postal Board of Governors did. brooklynite Feb 2022 #28

Pretty sure Trump is responsible for this mess fescuerescue Feb 2022 #30
