That's totally understandable considering the awful ice storm we had and the wide spread power outages that resulted........
Their new EVs don’t have the range in cold weather. 🙃
They definitely are holding mail hostage in Iowa! I vhanged residence and asked my family to put a particular piece of mail in an envelope and send it to me out of state. She did and I still havent received it. Turns out that she had the last 2 numbers of the zipcode wrong. The name, street,street number, city and state were correct. The first 3 numbefs were correct on the zip.
In the days before computers, they could have corrected that and delivered it, but the can’t or won’t do that any more. They returned it to the sender. Didn’t bother to look it up on the computer. Using a change of address doesn’t work because they ignor the name attached to the address. When you continuously receive other people’s mail, and you tell the carrier, he ignores you and continues to deliver that wrong mail to your address. As long as that address is correctly written for A valid address, it goes to that address regardless of who actually lives there. So if someone wants to vote 15 or 20 times or more, they can with all those addresses.
Change of address doesn’t matter. Your mail goes whereever your carrier wants to deposit it. And his postmaster will support him on those decisions. Wrong name on the envelope, deliver it. Wrong zip, send it back. Either way, they don’t care.
If you’re referencing the ragged, homeless looking folks wearing one or two USPS pieces of clothing delivering mail, no. I hadn’t noticed.
Will these folkx miss their junk mail?
ZIP codes have been machine-read for decades. If the code doesn’t align with the destination, the mail gets shunted for a human to check, but staffing resulting from the plandemic has likely led to just defaulting to returning it. It’s annoying, but the majority of the fault lies with whoever misaddressed that mail you were expecting, not the USPS.
One thing I can’t figure out, it’s my understanding it was unlawful for government employees to Unionize, even FDR was staunchly against that.
But the Post Office has had a Union since 1896 or whatever. How did that happen, how did that square with the other government entities. I think it was Kennedy who ultimately signed off on government Unionization.
Some USPS workers are moonlighting as Antifa with bonus pay as Election Riggers.
That was before cell phones, the Internet, and the digital age.
I hear a lot of places don’t have power. A friend in NorCal just sent a message saying he had to go stay in a motel that has a generator so he could keep warm. I tried to convince him to buy one but he said he just plugs into a neighbors generator. Sigh. I guess that neighbor moved or ran out of gas.
No power, no cell towers, no Internet connectivity which the USPS, UPS, Fedex, and others count on to record their deliveries. The GPS in their trucks should still work though.
It is hard to deliver the mail if the governors of some states close down the roads due to black ice, white outs etc.
The Postal System does all you list correctly where I live. It seems you have a malfunctioning local office. A call to the Postmaster General on the United States will usually correct those problems.
Click. Bait.
My son makes a joke of what you described by addressing mail to us like this:
Mom & Dad
123 Cute Little St
Smalltown, IN 45678
It always gets here.
The story on that - “Neither rain nor snow nor gloom of night . . . “ is not their official mission statement. The motto was chiseled or engraved on a building owned by a private courier service, before the Post Office took it over, something like that.
So it ain’t theirs, I guess, even though it has been attributed to them.
Close. That inscription is on the James Farley Building which used to be the New York General Post Office. It is now owned by NYC and is a mixed use office building. It was never a private enterprise.
Because the ruling class thinks they do not need us any more.
That isn’t a law. It just fit on the front of the NYC post office building.
There is a once in 30 year storm in SoCal. I think they can take a day for the weather.
