Ahhh... I see.... you where a fool. Sorry but that's the truth. I too have had foolishness cost me money.About five years ago I sold a cue on eBay, bought insurance, packed it up and took it to the post office. There was a long line so the clerk motioned to a big pile of packages and said if I already had a paid label just put it in the pile. I did so and the cue was never seen again. And I couldn't collect on the insurance because the post office had no record of the package being delivered to the post office. No cue, no insurance and nobody at the post office was nice about it in any way. Since then I have used UPS exclusively: very nice, very careful people, reasonable prices and NEVER A SINGLE PROBLEM.
If you are using post office, don't throw fool label around quite so freelyAhhh... I see.... you where a fool. Sorry but that's the truth. I too have had foolishness cost me money.
No way I would have thrown it In a pile without the clerk scanning it first. My post office scans my packages the instant I hand it to them.
How bad could it be? You scan the package or load that should be it right?The tracking itself at USPS is poor. I moved to Fed Ex 18 months ago- no issues.
You would think so. They do have the worst tracking in the businessHow bad could it be? You scan the package or load that should be it right?
Is that your way of saying the only bad postal employees are POC?Our PO has been re staffed in the interest of diversity and inclusion. Now when we ask for the help we used to be provided, we get a blank stare and "It's not my job." The most recent example is telling me I needed exact change to pay in cash or I had to use a debit card. So if I had exact change she would have taken my money, but the next person in line wouldn't be allowed to receive change if they paid in cash even though my cash was already in the drawer and available. I had been going to this PO for 45 years, yet there wasn't a single person left that I knew still working there.
What a condescending and insulting response to me, a long time AZB poster. There were about 30 people in line at the post office, one clerk and that was the choice I was given. I wish someone like you was with me there to help me avoid being a fool. At least I "where" a fool instead of "were" a fool. Do me a favor pal and never ever respond to any of my posts again.Ahhh...

This makes sense.I’m a postal worker. Some areas/regions are better than others. My district strives for 99% or better when it comes to parcel scanning. It’s drilled into us on a daily basis. Of course, it’s not so easy in other areas. Live in Florida? Imagine having to deal with the constant changes of address they deal with, people moving every few months, having to keep track of forwards, etc. it’s not so easy.
Carriers are being asked to deliver more and more parcels in the same amount of time, in addition to letters, magazines, etc. Meanwhile, the plant is full of useless people, who get bailed out by the unions, whose offices are right down the street. Most of the time, when mistakes are being made, it’s at the plants, which are the size of several Walmarts put together.
My frustration is not with the people, it's with the software. When their tracking detail is telling you that it's in a different state at 5pm on a Saturday stop telling me it will be there by 9pm that night, it's just silly. And I have to say, I've never seen a usps delivery come at 9 at night and to be honest, I'd would rather they didn't deliver at 9pm.I’m a postal worker. Some areas/regions are better than others.

Sorry you are so sensitive. I pointed out I am not above foolishness in sentence number 3. And forgive my phone for auto correcting and using the wrong word. I didn't catch it.What a condescending and insulting response to me, a long time AZB poster. There were about 30 people in line at the post office, one clerk and that was the choice I was given.

Your hostile response is why many people find AZB toxic and leave.
