I know a lot of people seem to have issues with the USPS, but my service has always been excellent.
The commercial has a good song though. You can't beat Johnny Cash.
Democrats have not had a problem with the commercial, yet.
I’ve been everywhere ‘MAN’ is sexist.
The other thing is that, those vans are not EVs, so, where are the democrats on that issue? (Chances are that, they won’t be everywhere when they convert to electric vehicles.)
I live in a small enough town that there is no mail delivery. You pick it up at the post office. UPS/Fedex will deliver to a street address.
I gotta say this. In my long life I’ve mailed maybe 7000 letters (yes, I just did a rough calculation). And at most maybe one or two got misplaced.
Three cheers for the US Postal Service! They are okay in my book.
Of course, your mileage may vary.
One of America’s most bloated, wasteful institutions. Second only to education.
The first class letter is the only mail that has statutory 4th amendment protections and requires a warrant to search.
Read the fine print on FedEx and UPS. They will looky loo if they want to.
Not going to Boston, Charleston, Dayton, Louisiana Washington, Houston, Kingston, Texarkana Monterey, Faraday, Santa Fe, Tallapoosa Glen Rock, Black Rock, Little Rock, Oskaloosa Tennessee to Tennesse Chicopee, Spirit Lake Grand Lake, Devils Lake, Crater Lake, for Pete's sake
I'm going nowhere man
I'm going nowhere man
My wallets empty - outta cash
My trucks on empty - outta gas
I hope these hard times don't last
because I'm going nowhere fast
I have preference for Brian Burns version: I’ve Been Everywhere…In Texas.
The great thing about not watching the tube for the last 10 yrs, if I visit my daughter, all the commercials are new to me
USPS needs to hire more mail carriers. Some of my family members have been working for USPS for many years. They are being worked to death early morning to late night, seven days a week. They are exhausted. USPS isn’t hiring enough workers, and when they do hire, the new hires don’t want to stay because they don’t want to work 80 hours a week. If the new hires do stay, they don’t care as much as the older guys, so they take shortcuts to get the job done more quickly.
Well, they don’t deliver EVERYWHERE.
They won’t deliver to me or my neighbors. We have to get a Post Office Box in a town 15 miles away.
Not that I blame them for not wanting to deliver out here. A long way to go for maybe 15 people in a ten square mile area.
But I do believe in honesty in advertising.
The song is brilliant and beyond classic.
You have some sort of problem with it? Your modus operandi seems to be posting something and then asking how everyone feels about it.
USPS is the most honest arm of govt. It’s revenue is through counter sales, and it’s required to fund pensions 15 years in advance.
Advertising can be a good investment, especially if a business has excess capacity, (available bandwidth, unrenting hotel rooms, trucks half empty, etc) so I won’t criticize the Post Office for advertising.
The Post Office has a congressionally mandated mission, unlike Fedex or UPS, so I won’t necessarily criticize them for inefficiency if that inefficiency is bake in.
