Package left Houston TX to VA in 2 days, then took 3 days to get to belmar, NJ. Then to upstate PA and back to Edison Nj, then back to same site in PA and back to edison Nj. Then did that twice more for 4 trips total. Finally was delivered to me in cape may Nj, 19 days after it left Texas
We are having MAJOR issues with packages in central Texas as of August 2024. It's a mess, both myself and a friend who lives about an hour away have had a ton of absurd issues with both trying to send and receive packages.
I have a package coming from USPS right now. It's supposed to be "Priority Mail," but it's been 4 business days so far, and there still isn't even an expected delivery date.
October 2023, I watch as my packages are sent in crazy circuitous routes all over the US. Things that start almost next door are routed clear across the country. Held for days, then sent to just as nutty a location elsewhere. When I finally get the package, nothing is wrong with the label. This seems intentional, is this Louis DeJoy ordering the destruction of the Postal Service?
Exactly what happens to my small padded envelopes with silver coins in it. They route to Indianapolis when the route is from Dallas to Dallas…..like WTF. It goes to Indiana when it should never leave Texas????? Idiotic to say the least. Oh and they are thieves. Either your wallet or your packages or both. Thieves. Government backed thieves.
I have better luck sending packages than I do with regular mail. If I send a package 300 miles it gets there on time. I got an appointment notice from my doctor that arrived 2 weeks after the appointment date. Our mail has to travel 70 miles to a sorting center to be sent back and delivered.
Within the states they are terrific. As a seller I usually have around 1,000 packages a year and around 4 packages become lost. When asking for a search 3 are usually recovered (0.1% failure rate). HOWEVER, I halted using USPS for international orders and only use more expensive FedEx or UPS which is a deal breaker to many customers. Too many packages and their replacement orders went to the Chicago international distribution center and just disappeared (75% between November and February). When you send a customer 2 orders, one a replacement for the first, both lost with search requests, then have to refund the customer it's time to call it quits.
a lot of times seller does not know its lost for several days it will finaly come all mail in he south i think it goes thru atlanta thats where the system drops it
I beg any of you to work in a usps facility for a week. I guarantee you'll quit after 3 days. Sometimes, new hired people quit first day. If I were you, I will feel blessed to have the opportunity to sell 1000 items per day. When we become ungrateful, Sometimes, God take that away. Live and let live. Life is not perfect, neither do you.
@FollowingYah hihihi I wish your taxpayer money can pay my bills. Meanwhile, Sir, when it's rain/snow , USPS is outside delivering your mail, when your house is burning down or your child is abduct, or your elders mother fails and need help, your usps stupid mailman calls the police to safe it. USPS saved so many lives and made so many people happy, besides delivering a stupid paper that it end up in trash anyway. USPS is an extended eye of police and firefighters. I used to hate them, I tracked my ex mailman, he was the worst, my parcels were delivered in purpose to neighbors, I used to call them weekly to report a mistake, until two years ago when I needed a job, and they hired me This is by far the hardest job, besides taxi/limo driver that I've ever done. I am far away from declaring that I love my job. Don't ever underestimate the potential of the stupid mailman. One day he can save your day or your life. Count on it.
:))) Don't make me laugh, they are garbage even here in the USA. They are always late and always lose the packages. I feel sorry for the sellers, as they are the ones that are at the receiving end of these inept individuals.
I spent 40 years in the post office, the last 25 years in mail processing. You have a lot of people who care about your mail and a lot of people who only care about collecting a paycheck. Then you have the thieves that are postal workers and contractors who work for USPS. If those people don't get greedy, a theft here or there, your package is chalked up to being lost in the postal system I'm sorry to say. Sometimes packages get destroyed in transit due to vehicle accidents where a lot of the mail has burned up and there's no way to tell where those packages were supposed to go. Just remember if you aren't getting your mail or packages, check with your neighbors to see if they are having the same problem. If the post office sees there is a high number of missing packages or mail they will look into it, or call the Postal Inspection Service.
You are right, just like every other place, they have the ones that work with honor for their paycheck and the other ones that are there just to collect a paycheck!
This needs to be updated and sent through the North Houston Distribution Center. We have packages that did not move for 15 days and another package that took 5 days. I’m now using UPS Ground because it is more dependable.
Had priority mail. Got it THREE days late... why did I pay for better shipping when it still took as long as if I paid less? Pathetic. Then they left the very expensive package at the FRONT of my porch for the whole world to see. Thankfully I live in a good neighborhood, but imagine if I didnt. 700 bucks out the window
I recently mailed some presents off to friends and one of them got mistakenly mailed to to England and back it made it to its proper destination 2 weeks late but the other packages I mailed at the same time all got there and there were also mailed to the same address
One of the Tampa postal workers is stealing mail. I had a loaded Vanilla Gift Card someone sent me from Tampa and when it finally arrived, the envelope and the card had been opened and used at one of the grocery stores in Tampa and glued back in the package and envelope. And when it finally arrived after 7 days and many phone calls later the balance was $0 on the card. I called and had them find out where the card was used at. Seems the mail man or mail lady is scamming people out of money like that. I sure hope they catch whoever it is!
@Dimples Exactly right! Mine was mailed directly from the post office. I called the Vanilla card company and gave them the number off the card and the tracked down where it was spent and the date. Then it was put back in the Vanilla card envelope and glued with super glue which wouldn’t come off the card. They have a thief working there and I hope they catch them.
I have huge problems with first class letters. Packages are fine. Priority mail is fast but expensive. Letters going to Kansas from Central Coast of California used to take a few days, now they take three weeks!
I once sent some critical papers from my home in Pasadena to my new home outside Boston, Priority 2-day mail. I then tracked my package crossing the US, from coast to coast, SIX TIMES, 3X back and forth, before it was finally delivered, too late to be useful, a month later! Sometimes I think the USPS is absolute crap, and sometimes, that is exactly what it is.
I remember lots of weird, confusing/controversial changes being made during 2020 when a new person was appointed over USPS. Now I need to go check if anyone has evaluated if those changes eventually did any good at all or just made things worse in the long run
Yeah, well, maybe you can track down my package that was coming from China, arrived in Jacksonville and instead of being shipped to Tampa, was shipped to Dunnellon and then just vanished into thin air. That seems to happen a lot more with USPS than any other carrier.
Most packages I get through the USPS have this problem. I placed a order in California. it made it pretty quick to the post office in Jacksonville Florida on Beaver St. . Then it goes to Orlando for a few days and comes back to The same post office. It is not here yet. Most of the time the package will bounce around town to 2 to 3 more post offices before it hits my post office and then gets delivered. Sometimes the package gets lost between post offices. If it were a straight shot or even a 2 post office trip my packages would be here in 2 to 3 days. No one I have spoken with has a clue how to fix this.
My 10lb/$150 USPS Priority Intl. shipment to Norway took more than 14 days just to get from Tucson, Az. to Los Angeles, Ca. Total transit was 35 days which is outrageous when you consider this used to take 9-10 days not long ago. USPS is taking a big dump and it stinks.
I had a package that was deemed no such address. That night I filed a claim, and the post office contacted me the very next day to let me know they had my package.
Um, yes, there can be such a thing as lost mail..I kno, becuz I work at the plant, and at times i find mail forgotten in bag sacks or dispatch equipment, etc..
Sometimes mail gets mixed up and sent to the wrong place or put in the wrong location. I knew a guy whose green card got put in his neighbor's mailbox by accident. The neighbor tossed it, not realizing what it was. Somehow this came to light when he was talking to the neighbor one day. Otherwise, it was basically "lost." I got a package to my address that wasn't for me (had my address but a different name--not an old tenant either)--no idea at the time how to find the intended recipient. For them, it was surely "lost." I heard a story of some mail that fell behind a counter or something for a very long time and were actually delivered when eventually found, but up until then they would be "lost." While some is surely stolen, sometimes right out of mailboxes like a family member of mine, there are plenty of opportunities for mail to get lost temporarily or permanently. Curb your sweeping conspiracy theories, please
@HereticWarlord is you slow in the head..what you mean haven't been caught..cuz I kno you forsure ain't talkin about me, cuz I ain't no dam thief, just like how not all all Postal employees ain't thiefs dummy🤦🏻♀️🙄
I found 3 news stories where stolen mail was recovered from workers at the USPS, who stole the mail, in the past few days alone...Stolen mail is far far more the case, than lost mail.
My order shipped from N.Y. to N.J., says delayed one day, and is now in California with tracking still saying delivery today. I doubt it would reach me today if it is in California. I would be impressed if it does.
Being stationed in Japan and USPS being the only service available to ship to military bases. It’s sucks. The avg time it takes to get anything shipped is a month to 2. Idk why that this but when ever I order from Amazon I can always get my packages 2-3weeks
Ive shipped 3 packages threw usps . They were lost or stolen after they hit Rodchester ny hub .a 4th one was shipped usps by mistake and guess what Rodchester hub and all ive gotten since is " in transit arriving late . No more updates . PAY EXTRA FOR PRIVATE COMPANY SHIPPING . Usps has way to many sticky fingers and not enough consequences for for lost or stolen packages .
I ordered a simple Phono catridge headshell, it supposed to arrive 15 days ago and I just received it today. What's funny is that I ordered another one from China 2 days later and that one arrived earlier that the one shipped from Philadelphia! :)) I ordered a Phono Cartride, it suppose to arrive yesterday, but instead it was sent to a different location and now I don't even know when it will arrive. Who ever is managing USPS gotta go, He doesn't know what He's doing and the staff should get trained or educated by UPS or Fed EX that are always on time.
We had over $250 in gift cards sent to family and friends stolen out of the mail dropped off at our local post office. They also destroyed the Christmas and birthday cards that were used to send the gift cards. Our family thought we were crazy asking if they got the cards. After 30 days we had to go buy more gift cards and mail them to family members. Thanks USPS
As someone who works as mail Carrier I always advice people on my route to never ever send gift cards or cash through the postal service unless it's necessary. Sad but there are so many thieves in within the postal service. Use UPS if your sending anything very valuable. Or pay priority mail so that you have insurance atleast.
@killacommieformommy DUDE! Yes they will, they do it all the time at the post office. I don't understand people. How do you tell another person about the employer they work for, when you never worked for them yourself? You don't know a damn thing about what goes on inside the warehouse. Y'all be killing me with this shit, DUDE!
In North Dakota they use gps and it often sends them to the wrong location. The mail carrier doesn’t even look at the building to see if it is the same address as on the box.
lol I have never gotten a package through usps early it is very rare for me personally to get one on time and i couldn’t help but laugh about the 5 day ship time and especially the 3 day priority that’s hilarious. I’ve had packages enter my state and then jump 4 states away and then take the longest possible route going through even more states just to arrive back in my own state. The last straw for me and usps was a package coming to me from Kentucky, I lived in Mississippi the package hit north ms then nothing for days and days and all of a sudden it’s in South Carolina from there it went to Georgia to Florida and eventually back to ms. It was 2 and a half weeks past when it should have arrived
After watching a few vids on USPS and reading various comments, I'm getting pretty convinced that it's entirely dependent on the individual facilities that will handle the package. It seems like some operate like total trash while others are incredible--almost like they're franchises or something
I currently have 2 packages pending, both of which are supposed to be delivered today. One (worth over $200) is “out for delivery” in Shrewsbury, a town 50 miles from me. I DO NOT LIVE IN SHREWSBURY! The other package (valued at >$500) was due to be delivered today, and was in fact delivered to my local PO this morning, but then it was immediately sent back to Shrewsbury! F’nA! I have had several packages mis-handled in the last few weeks. So far I have always gotten my packages eventually, but the USPS MAKES A LOT OF MISTAKES! Why so? Don’t we deserve better?
Even if you get a notification that your package is being returned, call your post office. You may be able to claim your package before it is returned.
USPS complaints get closed without them helping you. They don’t listen to customers. And they send packages to your return address before shipping it out of town - takes 5 days to just to get the item out of town!
Should I mention that my family members and I are still waiting for Christmas cards mailed from Boston Massachusetts to Glen Allen Virginia... December 9, 2023
thats just 4 packages out of the millions. statistically most of my stuff makes it more or less ok, that doesn’t mean i never have issues cause i do. they needed to do more packages over time to different areas. i suggest louisiana and new jersey.
Package started 30mins from my house. Was shipped past my house to another city 1.5 hours away. Then it left for New Hampshire for some bizarre reason and that’s last I heard of it. Literally started 30 mins away and now is across the country….. who knows when it’s coming
I agree. I mail over 200 packages a month. Only small packages or padded envelopes go missing. Mine had silver coins in it. It’s still missing of course because USPS are thieves even if they aren’t stealing your mail, they just rob your wallet and maybe your packages, either way this entity backed by the Federal Government is making about 6-7 BILLION dollars a year. Think about that. It’s corrupt. Shocking right?
they never found my package. it was a wedding dress, very valuable. I believe it was stolen. funny thing too, the entire staff at that post office is no longer there, new people now. maybe they were caught stealing because there were so many complaints of missing packages. @@GDE_INC.
One time my mom mailed a package from Texas to my brother in California and tracked the this package in Florida. Too bad post office doesn't offer frequent flier miles to their customers.
The Post Office uses detectors that can tell why you are using a tracker so they deliver those packages as quick as possible. Packages without a tracker take the longer route (usually to a employees house so they can test the goods first) before reaching its final destination.
They could detect the GPS and that's why they arrived in time ,I have been waiting on mail for over a year but what can I say they act like it arrived 🤔
I can't remember the last time a USPS package actually arrived on the expected delivery date. Whenever I check the tracking now I just 1 to 2 days to it.
@FollowingYah hihihi I wish your taxpayer money can pay my bills.

That was a null and void test, you shipped from major cities and to major cities, I am having issues just getting my packages consistently within a week or more, one time its 3 days, next time its a week and sometimes up to two weeks, from texas to oregon and its ridiculous!
The USPS has been a catastrophe of utmost proportions. Every year I hear horror stories of people who have lost their mail or had it arrived damaged because the USPS is so inefficient
You get what you pay for its a lot cheaper to send things through the mail. That and the union will protect everyone even if they steal things it impossible to fire them
Must be why Going Postal was created -- Someone waiting for their package and it never shows up, but why don't the Going Postal Person take it out on the Postal Service, not the WIfe or Kids or an innocent person?? LOL
I only use USPS for packages when I absolutely have to. As a traveler that works in more rural areas USPS never seems to be able to deliver when every other delivery company can. I’m a huge fan of cutting them out of the game. Can’t do your job time to go.
Never drop off via the instore drop off box or any other dropoff box. I did that and it never got acceptance scanned. Nothing I can do now since they "never got it". Always get a receipt when dropping it off.
I always have problems with the usps currently I send 2 copy’s of the same important curt papers for my that cost me $60 an they lost both of them one I paid $31 to mail over night an it just ended up at the post office an the other I paid $8 an it never left the post office I dropped off to An on top of everything I got a scam text telling me my address was incorrect an to put in my credit or debit for .30 cents re-deliver fee an I almost fall for it I even ask a post office employee about the message an my mail an they couldn’t help me or say anything if it’s legit or not this is insane like wtf is going on ! ?
My packages get processed in NH then even though tracking will say delivery the next day the package will get sent to Maine or Pennsylvania or God knows where instead of Vermont. It will stay say they are on time even though they are in a different state and clearly were put on the wrong truck. From there tracking will just say the packing is late but on it's way no matter how many days it actually takes to make it here. They usually do arrive eventually. I never ship USPS unless there's no other option. Priority mail used to be great but not for years now.
Shouldn’t be mailing electronics with live batteries. Did you all answer the question about that while mailing? Remember that next time you fly commercial that mail rides below where you sit. Hopefully people remember that when they skip past the very important hazardous to fly question.
Cant even Mail a package that's 40mins away? Ya id say you got lucky. One of my packages route was south houston to north houston to dallas and back to houston and has been stuck for 9days and is suppose to be delivered south of houston. oh And I have 2 other packages that are stuck in transit for 5+ days.
I’ll probably never buy anything online anymore unless I absolutely have to. USPS has delayed delivery to most of my packages, some packages were THROWN AWAY without any explanation as to why, and many were sent to wrong addresses. You can’t call them because you can’t reach a human being. And postal workers won’t give you a straight answer as to where your package is. It’s very inconsistent and it causes me so much anxiety and frustration whenever I order something. It’s just best to go to a brick-and-mortar store to buy it and take it home yourself, considering that the item you’re looking for is available where you live.
Mistakes? Tracking is no mistake. They mishandle and steal. That’s the mistake bud. You’re comment must be coming from an experience thief that worked at USPS. You sound like a loser who blames others. USPS is not an educator yet they act like you should know what the F is going on. Yet they control it all. Yeah so a label mistake or hand written errors maybe. But with tracking. No. Just be quiet and let us talk about you and your cronies.
California to Jacksonville Florida …..your package wonders around Jacksonville for 3 days after it gets to Jacksonville…..yes it’s true arrives early then wonders around till it’s late…why ?
I work in shipping and USPS is the worst. They charge the most for international duty/fees. A good portion of the time they lose packages. They are the slowest.

I heard a story of some mail that fell behind a counter or something for a very long time and were actually delivered when eventually found, but up until then they would be "lost." While some is surely stolen, sometimes right out of mailboxes like a family member of mine, there are plenty of opportunities for mail to get lost temporarily or permanently. Curb your sweeping conspiracy theories, please
@HereticWarlord is you slow in the head..what you mean haven't been caught..cuz I kno you forsure ain't talkin about me, cuz I ain't no dam thief, just like how not all all Postal employees ain't thiefs dummy🤦🏻♀️🙄
I found 3 news stories where stolen mail was recovered from workers at the USPS, who stole the mail, in the past few days alone...Stolen mail is far far more the case, than lost mail.
My order shipped from N.Y. to N.J., says delayed one day, and is now in California with tracking still saying delivery today. I doubt it would reach me today if it is in California. I would be impressed if it does.
My package from Holland to Vancouver WA is 13 days in transit to another....Yes...Still waiting..
Being stationed in Japan and USPS being the only service available to ship to military bases. It’s sucks. The avg time it takes to get anything shipped is a month to 2. Idk why that this but when ever I order from Amazon I can always get my packages 2-3weeks
Be grateful that u even have an option to mail to a military base..since usps is prolly the only one who does it🤨
Ive shipped 3 packages threw usps . They were lost or stolen after they hit Rodchester ny hub .a 4th one was shipped usps by mistake and guess what Rodchester hub and all ive gotten since is " in transit arriving late . No more updates . PAY EXTRA FOR PRIVATE COMPANY SHIPPING . Usps has way to many sticky fingers and not enough consequences for for lost or stolen packages .
I’m waiting for my USPS delivery from US to Brazil, that has no updates for more than 40 days.
Usps is horrible and scamming usa hope u got yours should still work

My issue is they mark it as delivered but I have cameras to prove it was never delivered
If a package has to go through the FedEx processing center in Troutdale, Oregon, you can add two weeks to the expected delivery date.
I ordered a simple Phono catridge headshell, it supposed to arrive 15 days ago and I just received it today. What's funny is that I ordered another one from China 2 days later and that one arrived earlier that the one shipped from Philadelphia! :))
I ordered a Phono Cartride, it suppose to arrive yesterday, but instead it was sent to a different location and now I don't even know when it will arrive.
Who ever is managing USPS gotta go, He doesn't know what He's doing and the staff should get trained or educated by UPS or Fed EX that are always on time.
Its outgoing mail in my area that never gets delivered. Vote by mail, forget about it.
We had over $250 in gift cards sent to family and friends stolen out of the mail dropped off at our local post office. They also destroyed the Christmas and birthday cards that were used to send the gift cards. Our family thought we were crazy asking if they got the cards. After 30 days we had to go buy more gift cards and mail them to family members. Thanks USPS
You can't trust the Post Office sometimes. There are thieves that work at the P.O.
As someone who works as mail Carrier I always advice people on my route to never ever send gift cards or cash through the postal service unless it's necessary. Sad but there are so many thieves in within the postal service. Use UPS if your sending anything very valuable. Or pay priority mail so that you have insurance atleast.
Wow...that's worthless
@killacommieformommy Well I guess you have never worked for the P.O.
@killacommieformommy DUDE! Yes they will, they do it all the time at the post office. I don't understand people. How do you tell another person about the employer they work for, when you never worked for them yourself? You don't know a damn thing about what goes on inside the warehouse. Y'all be killing me with this shit, DUDE!
These people work so hard and get no love. Please be kind to your mail service workers.
In North Dakota they use gps and it often sends them to the wrong location. The mail carrier doesn’t even look at the building to see if it is the same address as on the box.
My packages just get stuck in Fargo for over a week and I live an hour away. UPS is great here though.
I entrust our USPS. Congress needs to invest to upgrade the postal service!
lol I have never gotten a package through usps early it is very rare for me personally to get one on time and i couldn’t help but laugh about the 5 day ship time and especially the 3 day priority that’s hilarious. I’ve had packages enter my state and then jump 4 states away and then take the longest possible route going through even more states just to arrive back in my own state. The last straw for me and usps was a package coming to me from Kentucky, I lived in Mississippi the package hit north ms then nothing for days and days and all of a sudden it’s in South Carolina from there it went to Georgia to Florida and eventually back to ms. It was 2 and a half weeks past when it should have arrived
After watching a few vids on USPS and reading various comments, I'm getting pretty convinced that it's entirely dependent on the individual facilities that will handle the package. It seems like some operate like total trash while others are incredible--almost like they're franchises or something
2 years ago 😂and hasn't gotten any better
Need to test it more rural areas as it gets delayed or lost all the time
I currently have 2 packages pending, both of which are supposed to be delivered today. One (worth over $200) is “out for delivery” in Shrewsbury, a town 50 miles from me. I DO NOT LIVE IN SHREWSBURY! The other package (valued at >$500) was due to be delivered today, and was in fact delivered to my local PO this morning, but then it was immediately sent back to Shrewsbury! F’nA! I have had several packages mis-handled in the last few weeks. So far I have always gotten my packages eventually, but the USPS MAKES A LOT OF MISTAKES! Why so? Don’t we deserve better?
You got them already?
@@lambredas6981 Nope. I’ve got ‘em, but not “already.”
Even if you get a notification that your package is being returned, call your post office. You may be able to claim your package before it is returned.
USPS complaints get closed without them helping you. They don’t listen to customers. And they send packages to your return address before shipping it out of town - takes 5 days to just to get the item out of town!
When attempting to crap on the postal service goes wrong lol. Integrity prevails over this investigation.
Hahahah that’s why I love the USPS
usps is shit
They got lucky. I was not.
@@TheInvisibleOrange26gay loser
Should I mention that my family members and I are still waiting for Christmas cards mailed from Boston Massachusetts to Glen Allen Virginia... December 9, 2023
It’s worse now.
This goes to show no people, no delivery!!
thats just 4 packages out of the millions. statistically most of my stuff makes it more or less ok, that doesn’t mean i never have issues cause i do. they needed to do more packages over time to different areas. i suggest louisiana and new jersey.
Package started 30mins from my house. Was shipped past my house to another city 1.5 hours away. Then it left for New Hampshire for some bizarre reason and that’s last I heard of it. Literally started 30 mins away and now is across the country….. who knows when it’s coming
it seems like the small packages are lost more than large ones
I disagree
I agree. I mail over 200 packages a month. Only small packages or padded envelopes go missing. Mine had silver coins in it. It’s still missing of course because USPS are thieves even if they aren’t stealing your mail, they just rob your wallet and maybe your packages, either way this entity backed by the Federal Government is making about 6-7 BILLION dollars a year. Think about that. It’s corrupt. Shocking right?
did the tracking info jive the entire trip? i have never had accurate usps tracking
I think the usps do a pretty good job .
This was 3 years ago..... Try that now in Nov 2024
Send then through Houston to a rural address. We are having major issues in TEXAS getting packages!
My package is delayed/lost and no one at usps knows what happened. Its still in transit after 3 weeks when it should have arrived in 5 days.
did you get it?
Did you get it ?
What happened?
no....they lost it. it was a valuable package and I do think it was stolen.@@b2b545
they never found my package. it was a wedding dress, very valuable. I believe it was stolen. funny thing too, the entire staff at that post office is no longer there, new people now. maybe they were caught stealing because there were so many complaints of missing packages.
@@GDE_INC.
One time my mom mailed a package from Texas to my brother in California and tracked the this package in Florida. Too bad post office doesn't offer frequent flier miles to their customers.
The Post Office uses detectors that can tell why you are using a tracker so they deliver those packages as quick as possible. Packages without a tracker take the longer route (usually to a employees house so they can test the goods first) before reaching its final destination.
They could detect the GPS and that's why they arrived in time ,I have been waiting on mail for over a year but what can I say they act like it arrived 🤔
As a postal carrier mostly it’s customers fault for not receiving their packages.
I can't remember the last time a USPS package actually arrived on the expected delivery date. Whenever I check the tracking now I just 1 to 2 days to it.
@FollowingYah hihihi I wish your taxpayer money can pay my bills. Meanwhile, Sir, when it's rain/snow , USPS is outside delivering your mail, when your house is burning down or your child is abduct, or your elders mother fails and need help, your usps stupid mailman calls the police to safe it. USPS saved so many lives and made so many people happy, besides delivering a stupid paper that it end up in trash anyway. USPS is an extended eye of police and firefighters. I used to hate them, I tracked my ex mailman, he was the worst, my parcels were delivered in purpose to neighbors, I used to call them weekly to report a mistake, until two years ago when I needed a job, and they hired me
This is by far the hardest job, besides taxi/limo driver that I've ever done. I am far away from declaring that I love my job.
Don't ever underestimate the potential of the stupid mailman. One day he can save your day or your life. Count on it.
@@mihaelazisu590 I have no problem with postal workers, just the USPS tracking system. 😀
That was a null and void test, you shipped from major cities and to major cities, I am having issues just getting my packages consistently within a week or more, one time its 3 days, next time its a week and sometimes up to two weeks, from texas to oregon and its ridiculous!
The USPS has been a catastrophe of utmost proportions. Every year I hear horror stories of people who have lost their mail or had it arrived damaged because the USPS is so inefficient
You get what you pay for its a lot cheaper to send things through the mail. That and the union will protect everyone even if they steal things it impossible to fire them
When you don't have a story, just repeat what you hear. It feeds the need to feel important.
Must be why Going Postal was created -- Someone waiting for their package and it never shows up, but why don't the Going Postal Person take it out on the Postal Service, not the WIfe or Kids or an innocent person?? LOL
@@kchedville Going Postal the store?
They’re hiring
It goes missing and they stop tracking then it shows up with obvious signs of tampering.
I only use USPS for packages when I absolutely have to. As a traveler that works in more rural areas USPS never seems to be able to deliver when every other delivery company can. I’m a huge fan of cutting them out of the game. Can’t do your job time to go.
Avoid usps at all cost unless it’s the only shipping option
Never drop off via the instore drop off box or any other dropoff box. I did that and it never got acceptance scanned. Nothing I can do now since they "never got it". Always get a receipt when dropping it off.
What GPS tracking did you use? I want to offer this as a service for customers!
I always have problems with the usps currently I send 2 copy’s of the same important curt papers for my that cost me $60 an they lost both of them one I paid $31 to mail over night an it just ended up at the post office an the other I paid $8 an it never left the post office I dropped off to
An on top of everything I got a scam text telling me my address was incorrect an to put in my credit or debit for .30 cents
re-deliver fee an I almost fall for it I even ask a post office employee about the message an my mail an they couldn’t help me or say anything if it’s legit or not this is insane like wtf is going on ! ?
Bruh its been 4f*cking monts I’ve been waiting for my package it was in my town then bam went around the world 4f*cking times still going
Yeah, I have the same problem. One time I sent a letter to United Kingdom, but it didn’t come back the answer.
Why is it that every station needs two newsreaders for each story?
Is it that difficult?
My packages get processed in NH then even though tracking will say delivery the next day the package will get sent to Maine or Pennsylvania or God knows where instead of Vermont. It will stay say they are on time even though they are in a different state and clearly were put on the wrong truck. From there tracking will just say the packing is late but on it's way no matter how many days it actually takes to make it here. They usually do arrive eventually. I never ship USPS unless there's no other option. Priority mail used to be great but not for years now.
Shouldn’t be mailing electronics with live batteries. Did you all answer the question about that while mailing? Remember that next time you fly commercial that mail rides below where you sit. Hopefully people remember that when they skip past the very important hazardous to fly question.
They also shouldnt be spying on post office, this seems very illegal 2 me , some one needs a big FINE !!
It's called the cfr 49 and publications 52 on the bottom page of the post office website.
I have ordered about 8 packages in the last 3 weeks and all of them have been late by about 5 days with these people.
it’s gonna take 27 days until my package arrives
My local post office seldom answers the phone. The one time they do, I've been placed on hold for 15+ MF minutes!
What about packages that were declared as delivered but were not and show days or weeks later?
My application was already submitted for the Employer SEPTA.
Cant even Mail a package that's 40mins away? Ya id say you got lucky. One of my packages route was south houston to north houston to dallas and back to houston and has been stuck for 9days and is suppose to be delivered south of houston. oh And I have 2 other packages that are stuck in transit for 5+ days.
First class mail used to be 1-3 days.
I’ll probably never buy anything online anymore unless I absolutely have to. USPS has delayed delivery to most of my packages, some packages were THROWN AWAY without any explanation as to why, and many were sent to wrong addresses. You can’t call them because you can’t reach a human being. And postal workers won’t give you a straight answer as to where your package is. It’s very inconsistent and it causes me so much anxiety and frustration whenever I order something. It’s just best to go to a brick-and-mortar store to buy it and take it home yourself, considering that the item you’re looking for is available where you live.
This ad paid for by USPS
What brand were those GPS trackers? I would love to replicate this postal test in my area of the country.
She does realize those priority packages have tracking corrrect? Why the gps?
Im guessing in case they go missing from the USPS tracking system.
'Tracking' is done (scanned) at Hubs. The GPS does all along the trip
Then I buy a $900 laptop it just disappears off into the ether. Go figure.
Thanks just to check if my package arrived safely here in Papua New Guinea
You got lucky. Trust me.
Compared to 10 years ago, a day faster.
i sent a package to korea from cali standard mail it took 3 months , when usps said it would only take 6-10 days ...
My application was already submitted for MTA of NEW YORK CITY the Employer.
Reading all these comments makes me just love automation
a lot of mistakes by the customer are not shown here
Mistakes? Tracking is no mistake. They mishandle and steal. That’s the mistake bud. You’re comment must be coming from an experience thief that worked at USPS. You sound like a loser who blames others. USPS is not an educator yet they act like you should know what the F is going on. Yet they control it all. Yeah so a label mistake or hand written errors maybe. But with tracking. No. Just be quiet and let us talk about you and your cronies.
Try that with a letter, or to a location without a mailbox..gone forever!
It still cheaper than ups and fedex
As long as it don’t got to NJ distribution center you’ll be ok.
But my priority shipping package can't get to the state beside me in 5 days but cross country only takes a day and a half I guess
People don’t realize how affordable usps is when compared to fedex
My priority package is currently 8 days late…
It's been 2years and I am still waiting for at least 1000$ worth of stuff ì ordered and I have disabilities
California to Jacksonville Florida …..your package wonders around Jacksonville for 3 days after it gets to Jacksonville…..yes it’s true arrives early then wonders around till it’s late…why ?
I work in shipping and USPS is the worst. They charge the most for international duty/fees. A good portion of the time they lose packages. They are the slowest.
Payed for priority mail and today will be going on 6 days lmao crazy
We use Fedex and never have any problems.
The USPS is a disorganized disaster!
Their employees are like a teachers union ..... SUCK BADLY at their job ..... retain their job , and still get paid !
They are incompetent. I refuse to do business with any company that uses the post office.
