I have officially had it with USPS. Why? Listen to my story.
About 1 and 1/2 weeks ago, I ordered something online via Amazon.com. I selected regular shipping at checkout (5-8 business days). I tracked it, and when it finally came to my local post office location, I was eagerly waiting for my package. 3 days later, it has still been sitting there in their darn facility. THEN... I saw the mailman come by and deliver mail. I ran out in the rain to get the mail... only to come and find ADS, NOT my package, which has been sitting there for 3 days! Shouldn't the package be their priority vs. the advertisements? Evidently it is not.
I am really upset, so I request of you to please join me on my strike. It is really simple, and it is much more convenient to you. From now on, instead of collecting those ads just to throw them away, leave them in the mailbox and only collect letters and packages that have been addressed to you or your family (i.e. a letter, a package, etc.). Since it isn't our property, why should we be the ones to collect the ads that they flood our mailbox with? Is an ad worth more than your customer's package? For USPS, it certainly is! All you have to do is leave advertisements in the box.
Maybe Amazon.com should have disguised the package as a Walmart ad? Would it have shipped much faster?
I hope you see what you are wasting your tax dollars for. This isn't the only uselessness the USPS serves. They have enough money to post expensive TV ads on CNN claiming that they are nearly broke? Are you kidding me? Just doing that is utterly contradicting their point! Instead of burning their money on national television ads, MAYBE they could spend it WISELY like HIRING MORE WORKERS so packages can ship more efficiently? I dont know... just a thought... You are paying for national television ads (without any say in this, of course... we have no idea what the government does with our money) with your hard-earned money. Why do they want us to support them? So they can continue running their business by sending countless ads?
Please, join the strike. It's really simple. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
