I hate going to my local PO because the over-the-counter personnel are not helpful-almost rude. I agree with some who think that the PO should be a private enterprise and it would probably be run more efficiently.Abby / Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13028566281703045829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8137912719768508787.post-86398978404561304982014-04-11T20:38:01.932-05:002014-04-11T20:38:01.932-05:00UPS could care more....

It is the relief mailmen that randomly cover his day off each week and his vacations. OFTEN we get our neighbor's mail or they get ours. We have found mail laying in they yard! Do they care?

But to actually write a form letter (as it probably is) is thinking kind thoughts. Someone at my work is so down on the PO, but I feel sorry for them - all the things they have to put up with!

I've received several battered and/or late packages from a couple different carriers, and "Priority" mail hasn't seemed much of a priority some times! On the other hand, my mail tends to come a couple hours earlier than it did at my last residence, and that makes me happy.

When we first moved here, it seemed we always had the same man. Then there were two. Then the first man was gone. Now I couldn't tell you how many different people we had. None of them seem very happy either. (Could have something to do with all the snow and ice we've had!) <br /><br />I hope your letter was STILL inside that envelope!
