@futurebird I think #DeutschePost should really copy that style from #USPS!

My son-in-law is going through training with #USPS. I wonder if that includes training for #goingpostal. 😜 There's a reason that phrase entered the lexicon and became an idiom. I've said as much to him. Yeah, I'm probably an asshole.

The explanation from the FAQ linked above is pretty infuriating: "As operating expenses fueled by inflation continue to rise and the effects of a previously defective pricing model are still being felt, these price adjustments are needed to provide the Postal Service with much needed revenue to achieve the financial stability sought by its Delivering for America 10-year plan."

@schenklklopfer in den #USA bei #USPS schon immer der Standard gewesen.

Bei #DeutschePost / #DHL sonst immer nen #Geschäftskunden-Feature gewesen, aber andscheinend kapieren die dass es sinnvoller ist wenn Lieferfahrzeuge auch Lieferungen annehmen und nicht komplett leer (abgesehen von Annahme verweigert oder unzustellbar) zurück ins Depot fahren.

Ist so'n bissichen wie die Elektrifizierung jener Auslieferungsfahrzeuge: Bei Stop & Go sowie Lange Standzeiten im Depot reichen billige Akkus...

@PsyChuan If you have anything insightful, feel free to sent an anonymous tip to the #FDA and #NYPD amidst him selling literal poison and illegally marketing it as medication which he neither got a license to make and advertise as such.

Pretty shure you can CC them all with the #FBI so they can figure out if poisioning and scamming people across state is federal, state or local juristiction...

Also I'm shure #USPS and the Postal Inspector may also be interested.

I was just at the PO looking for preprinted prepaid postcards to write to someone in jail cause that's all they accept but the PO lady says they don't stock them cause no one uses them. But there's a lot of people in jail. 🤔

PSA: tomorrow is last day to order free at-home #COVID test kits delivered via #USPS mail

Editorial lament: if only we had #SinglePayer #MedicareForAll and everyone was covered for #longCOVID evaluation, treatment - no deductibles, co-pays, fighting with insurance companies, fear of draining savings, going into medical debt, possibly bankruptcy😕😡👎

So annoying. The #USPS lost yet another one of my coins and marked it as delivered.

#TheAnthraxAttacks on #Netflix does a good job focusing almost as much on the #postal workers killed and injured by the (unsolved?) attacks as on the main suspects.

Workers at the former #Brentwood center (all #USPS employees) were kept at risk all through the attacks, unlike workers at every other attacked site.

All non-mail deliveries to #WhiteHouse offices across all buildings were permanently ended, and all mail was (is?) irradiated off-site.

Brentwood was my last #DC mail center, 2017.

Annoyed. I ordered a coin and USPS said it was delivered today. And my mailbox is empty. :( This is the 3rd time the #USPS has failed in the last 6 months. #coins #numismatics

Today in Labor History March 23, 1970: President Richard Nixon declared a national emergency and sent 30,000 troops to New York City to serve as scabs to break the first nationwide postal strike.

The Postal Service is running big deficits today. But you can trace its problems back to 1970, when Congress told the Post Office to start acting like a business. It isn’t a business, and most Americans would be upset if the #USPS ever acted like one. http://www.fromthegovt.com/the-postal-service/

Was I—were we—wrong about #LouisDeJoy, the #Trump-loving #PostmasterGeneral we were told was deliberately working to destroy the #US #PostalService (#USPS)?

It seems so; I hope so:

Despite the increase in #PackageDeliveries since 2020, #FedEx underwhelms. They've taken to leaving my packages (1) at the end of the road (like leaving the at the corner under the street sign when you live in the middle of the block), (2) handing them to random people so you have to re-order, and now (3) leaving them in the mailbox 1/2 mile from the house on a "busy" road. I chose the smallest mailbox to limit package deliveries (larger ones are delivered by #USPS to a neighboring house).
