MOW: Alright I was critical of the usps when they AGAIN bungled an easy (but EXPENSIVE!) task this week - so now I have to give them a bit of credit. I mailed a small package 8 days ago to my friend in Maple Valley taxington from here in SW Montana a distance of 605 road mile - it arrived safely today. I realize the usps is busy (but way over paid!) and it is hectic this time of year but a small first class package only making 75.6 miles per day is, IMO, slow! Anyway I thank them for getting it there safely (insured for $100.00) if in a somewhat slow manner. Good luck all fellow "mailers". Hold into the wind VarmintGuy
I am sorry but I can't let that one go. Our local Target is paying fifteen bucks an hour to stock shelves........to start. Postal employees don't get paid much more than that to start and the job is a hell of a lot tougher than putting out candy bars. Try to get fedex or ups to deliver an envelope for 55 cents.
