I used to work sorting mail in a facility with 200 residents, plus staff (so decent amount of mail every day). If I'd had trust in USPS prior to that, I would have lost it.

Here's some of the best:

1) Envelope saying, "we damaged your mail," but the only thing inside is the scarp of envelope with the address on it.

2) Envelope saying, "we damaged your mail," with a magazine inside - which was addressed to somewhere else. So not only did they damage this guy's mail, they also sent it to the wrong place.

3) Mail from Kentucky (facility was in NY)

4) Postman dropped off stacks of mail intended for nearby apartment buildings by us.

5) Mail delivered to us by accident, we "returned to sender," came back to us. Even when we covered every possible identifying mark except the return address, it came back to us, so the only possible explanation was that the postman saw it in the outgoing mailbox, and just brought it back to us.

When they delver 10's of millions a day then yes a few here and there are meaningless.
I am not going by polling data. I am basing it on internal numbers (from 2 years ago) that you don't have access to.

How about we start here. USPS has been doing great according to the people that use it.

A business with this type of yearly losses would be considered failing

It should just declare bankruptcy. I know a certain corporation that does this quite often.

It is not a business, it is a service the government provides.

Not much to sabotage here.... USPS is pretty screwed up already.

They are living in the 20th century and only survive with bailouts.

Get rid of the unions, hire some real business folk, and turn this into a business, not some dysfunctional government program.

Some don't seem to understand USPS is a service that is mandated by congress. It is not allowed to run as a business.
Now you can keep up with your crying but that doesn't solve anything.
There will be mail in voting so we need to assure it is not sabotaged by anyone. Most of you give the impression you don't care if it is sabotaged.

Most understand it, it’s one of the biggest proofs that government is incompetent. And smaller government is always better

Where is your proof? 74% say they are doing an excellent/good job.
Amazon and UPS use them. They must be doing something right.

You are clueless and just keep drinking the Kool-Aid.
If you want to run USPS like a business you drop FCM and expand packages. It would make money every year.
Instead the idiots claim USPS is losing money delivering packages.
Explains why Trump wins the uneducated vote by a large margin.  :)

Interesting... Everyone seems to say FCM is USPS's most profitable product.
