It is stunning to me that people within the same country hold such opposite views on things.

I live in NYC and USPS is worse than useless. They’ll leave shit on the porch (in NYC), lie and say they put it in your mailbox, or lie about attempted deliveries. It’s usually easier to just order it again than it is to get USPS to make a second attempt at delivery.

If I need a local letter or package delivered I would prefer to hand deliver it than entrust it to USPS. If I have something important to deliver I would never even consider USPS.

For me USPS is just spam delivery service. The only thing I reliably get from them is junk, and it’s a weekly chore to move junk mail from my mailbox to the recycling bin.
