I purchased an item off of Ebay. According to the tracking number, it was to be delivered to me today (I live in a southern state) having shipped from Wisconsin. Tracking shows it is now in Pittsburg, PA. Very common for USPS to takes 2-4 weeks for what should have been delivered in a few days.
I have on occasion gone to USPS’ website and filled the form out for missing mail. Even after the item finally gets delivered to me, I still get emails 2-3 months later informing me they are still looking for it. So filling out the “missing mail” form is a waste of time.
One thing I have found out is unionized public workers don’t care.
Sweeping generalization and untrue on my part. I see many customers every day on my 700+ stop route. I have formed great relationships with people during my 26 career and feel very disappointed when I don’t have either the heart pills Mrs. Johnson is waiting for or the viagara Mr. Smith is anxiously awaiting.
