OK....I disagree. I am in NO WAY affiliated with usps, but for the money I think they do a good job. It’s the current situation we’re all in that has usps in a bind. They need workers...

They need better workers. Like UPS, they’re unionized and don’t care.

We were told by a postal employee they have horrible staffing problems because people call in and say they were “exposed” to someone who tested positive for the “Black Plague” and have to “self quarantine” (yeah right). I think they then get paid time off for claiming they are staying home.

How is it that the private sector gets the job done? I've never seen a mailman hustle in my life. There is no reason for the government to be involved in delivering mail in the 21st century. Per the US Constitution, "To establish Post Offices and post Roads;" Nothing prohibits Congress from farming that out to the private sector. The USPS is mismanaged. Their employees are lazy and overpaid.

It seems that UPS and FedEx are finding the people do deliver packages, and they do it at a profit, whereas the USPS loses billions.

Why is it they can deliver millions of ballots but they are unable to deliver packages and regular mail? Unacceptable and heads need to roll and they can hire more workers!

Ha. They are terrible. They are nasty and they steal.

I have had so much stolen in the mail. They also made sure some people never got their absentee ballots. I got an envelope mailed from my own zip code, it arrived almost 3 weeks late. Why? It was right before the election. They slow walked all the mail.

I run a mail order business. I process over 160 orders a month. I have not had a single package that was actually lost for the last several years. I have seen some examples of Post Office incompetence regarding packages that were returned to me, but overall, I regard the system as efficient.
