And yet the postal service says they need more money, for what! It appears they aren't giving the service they should and I would definitely talk with my local postmaster in charge and if that doesn't do any good write to the next guy up or to the Postal Office head honcho! The squeak wheel gets the grease. Fortunately we have a good regular mail carrier and a good substitute carrier as well as a great local postmaster. We are blessed compared to what I am hearing from others. It sounds like the carriers are getting by with the least work they can and the postmaster doesn't seem to care that they aren't doing their job either. YUCK!
