My son waited a week for a package to get to our local post office from the hub our mail passes through (we are in a small town). Because the package was tracked he knew where it was and it sat there that long. We were told that the postal hub was very short-staffed (not sure if it is due to COVID or what).
Post office has been short staffed for awhile , lot of younger people dont stick around at the job very long. I cant imagine Corona helps matters because you automatically get two weeks off if you test positive and the people who work next to would get a few days off too to get tested even if they feel fine. Luckily Im in a big office and only one guy has been sick
