There has been several threads concerning varies delivery services. Now that I’m looking I can’t find a suitable thread to add my disgust with so I’ll start my own. It’s with USPS. They just did it again. They are the only delivery service that can’t find me. I got another email today saying that they were unable to deliver the package and will try again. This has become SOP with them. After three failed attempts they come through. My address has not changed nor do any other service have a problem. This happens so frequently it must be a stall. The package in question today resulted in an exchange that I made with Amazon concerning a 2 pairs of pants that I received that were too large. I sent the original pairs back in exchange for 2 pairs smaller. That was absolutely the only change. The first pair were sent to me via UPS and came through as always, no hitch. The pairs in exchange were sent to me via UPSP and I get their customary letter saying that the delivery attempt failed and that they will try again. Going by history they will attempt two more times and then will succeed. The first few times this happened I became concerned, I now view it at SOP for them. They never have delivered without first sending three failed attempts consuming about a week in the process. They suck.

Yes, Agreed. They used to be the only game in town, and have stagnated. AND now the punch line is the politics adding to the mess. It's a shame, with the inf restructure they have, the USPS could lead the pack and leave them all in the dust. But there's no will to make it so.

When someone went crazy they used to call it "going Postal" which kind of shows the historic challenges in that dept.
