Post Office Delivery Issue

Goodie2shoes · ‎04-30-2012

I was expecting a QVC delivery today from the Post office according to tracking notification. Came home from Church and had a email from QVC that my package was delivered around 11:19 am at my front door/porch. ( I live in a apartment) Hum, I have a ring camera, NO PACKAGE !! Post office is closed today but I will be calling tomorrow. They also delivered someones mail to my mailbox on Saturday. I will be returning it to the mail person on Monday. The main post office is running adds here to hire more people to train for postal workers as there is a shortage and people are complaining of delays in mail and package deliveries. What's it like in your area ? Any delivery problems with the post office ? I'm in St. Louis, I called QVC and they are reshipping my order and if my original package gets delivered I can return it with no return fee.

I always check my email every morning for informed delivery from USPS. Last week on Monday it showed that I was going to receive 2 1099 interest tax forms on Monday.

They showed up on Wednesday. I wouldn't get concerned right away. The Postal Service department is backed up. Yo will probably get the original order tomorrow or Tuesday.

I often get packages marked as delivered on the next day. I would wait.

Lots of issues here. Delayed mailings (envelopes) by weeks. Send a check and the recipient just might get it a month later...about 20 mile trip.

Postmaster says there aren't enough "qualified" people for the jobs.

I ask..."not enough people or not enough who can do the job?"

He responded..."there are lots of people, not enough who can do the job."

How difficult is it to work at a local post office?

I do too! Not just the PO that does this. A lot of times my Amazon packages say delivered and they show up a few hours later.

@Goodie2shoes You get mail on Sunday? Wow!

I have found that that cheaper mail where UPS hands off to post office creates e-mails to me that says it is delivered,but it means UPS delivered it to the post off. They the PO will deliver it to me in a day or two.

You wanna know HOW MANY times I went to see the Postmaster personally? The most recent time they had declared me dead and my house abandoned.

We have been lucky that our USPS delivery has been wonderful. UPS is the one I worry about around here.

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.

Good Lord, seriously? 😳

It's a job I would never want, no matter the pay. Right up there with UPS.

People who don't shovel their walks or secure their dogs. Counter people who get abused because a stamp went up by a nickel....city carriers who walk a route on 8Mile in Detroit.

Multiply the complaints here by 100. Every single day.
