This one was post marked 12/17.

 

Third Christmas card we have gotten this week or last that was postmarked mid-to-late December.

I ship a lot of stuff from my online shop so I see how USPS is operating in different areas. Ohio has been the worst.

I had a package ship Nov 28 and it sat in the Columbus USPS distribution center for a month and a half, then went to Pittsburgh, back to Columbus, and finally delivered last week. Oh the stories it could tell.

I inquired about a card I had to mail Monday.  They said I could send it priority for $7.95, but even priority wasn't set to be delivered until Saturday - 5 days for a priority letter!

What's frustrating is it isn't like USPS doesn't know how to get it done, it's not their fault. Different states have different levels of COVID restrictions, and the previous administration was determined to disrupt the service. But acknowledging the service is slower is one thing, they should be adjusting the rates accordingly.

I wonder how many mail-in ballots are still floating around out there?  😉
