I feel your pain

Delivery? You get your mail delivered? To your house? What a novel concept!
The mail here S T I N K S. People here actually LIKE to go to the PO every friggin day to get their mail. I think it is absurd and I hate to wait in line. People here actually like waiting in the long line at the PO.
What is really bizarre is the adversary relationship each PO has with the other PO on island. I live on the border of two towns and my mailing address is different from my physical address. UPS/FedEx needs to know the physical address the PO needs to know the other. If a screw up occurs my mail ends up at the wrong PO and they "Hold it for my convenience, for two weeks then return it to the sender" they say. I tell them it is not convenient, as many times I don't know you are holding my mail and you don’t tell me you have it and would they please just forward any mail that comes here to the correct PO so I will eventually get it. They say..."sorry, we don't forward the mail we will just hold it for your convenience then return it to the sender...BUT I DON"T KNOW YOU HAVE IT!!! WTF? So now I have to go to two PO's to check my mail.


E-mail is killing them. That is why the rate hikes IMO.


Go email and UPS/Fedex when ever possible. The post office is a Stone Age institution.
