Re: Postal Service?
Sent two boys to high school 30 miles away. Yep, drove them till the older one turned 16.
The usps took 5 days to get a letter from their school to me, for father meetings, etc. (always a day after the meetings)
I even mailed a letter home from a mailbox right outside of their school before 730 am and was postmarked within a day, 5 days later it shows up.
When I called the postmaster about the slow timing, well you can guess the government agency response.
All my banking and bills are done in person or electronic for a long time now.
If I'm lucky I'll get the mail from the box once a week and most of it never makes the house. (the trash can is outside)
If it wasn't the law to have that ugly mailbox in the front yard it would have been gone years ago.
Yea the box is ugly, I live out so the snowplows in the winter and the baseball bats in the summer keep it a pita, so not a good money idea to waste a dime on something that will be replaced/repaired every few months.
Privatize the mail gets my vote.
Sorry about the rant, but man I feel better. Thanks
