USPS is filled with complete useless idiots.

USPS does not suck. They do a fairly well job of delivering what you mail/ship.
They only appear to suck because UPS and FedEx are around to compare them to.
No UPS? No FedEx? USPS would appear to be the greatest thing since sliced bread...
It's like saying silver sucks because gold exists...

Dan8267 says

The USPS does suck, but not because it's a government entity. If that were the case, all government entities would have to suck including the army and marines.

The USPS sucks because the people in the USPS suck.

Dan8267 says

All things come down to people.

Except global warming. Somehow that transcends us...

Global warming and other climate change is most certainly due to people. As is the bullshit of climate change denial.

I was referring to your position that people can't fix global warming, in contrast to your statement here. Is this how Global Warming belief persists? Ignoring context while making contradictory statements?

Dan8267 says

That's double-speak.

No, that's truth. How do global wars happen without government? How does the Holocaust occur without government? Pol Pot, Stalin, Mao, all killed because government was backing them. Police brutality..? Not without government! Brainwashed government pods who call government = anarchy doublespeak? Certainly don't exist without their government indoctr.. er education.

I never made such a statement. There are lots of material things we can do to limit, mitigate, and prepare for climate change. The first obvious thing is to stop making the problem worse.

Government is anarchy.

Do you even know what anarchy is?

And if you're going to adopt the policy of "bad implementations of X mean that X should never be implemented" then apply that to capitalism, the military, the fossil fuel industry, and religion.

When I say we should never do X, I back it up with the reasons and evidence that X is intrinsically bad, not giving irrelevant examples of bad implementations of X.

It's not even worth my time debating such nonsense.

cuz it's run by the ever so efficient government?

look at dmv... how about city hall?

You forgot the military.

The solution to bad government is to replace it with good government, not to embrace anarchy.

USPS sucks for the same reason the DMV sucks.

No competition.

Fed ex and ups are way worse.

I had a fed ex package coming. I live in a gated complex. My wife had just gotten home and saw the fed ex guy writing out a ticket saying he tried to deliver. Wife asked if she could accept delivery to make sure it got to the right unit. Fed ex guy says "nah, I already wrote the slip, they can pick it up at our facility". My wife was insistent. The package was for me :/

The other thing the fed ex guys like to do is knock, and leave that second. One time I was waiting for a package and purposely working in the hallway by the front door so I'd be there when it arrived. Guy knocks. I literally open the door three second later, he's gone, and there's a missed delivery tag on the door :/

Final one. This one fed ex also. I used to collect Mcfarlane sportspick figures. There a football exclusive I want because it will instantly be worth like $120(cost plus shipping is $25) and I can use it to trade for stuff I really want. I'm excited at w...

Came here to post this. UPS and FedEx are both terrible. I only ship USPS because they are the only company that hasn't lost or damaged a package I've shipped or received.

Reposting again. Stating that you don't have the reading comprehension skills to understand my thoughts is a factual statement not an opinion and is empirically true. Therefore, it is not an ad hominem attack. I am refuting your straw man arguments.

NuttBoxer says

Ohh wait, Dan really believes

You have no idea what I really believe, because that knowledge requires higher reading comprehension skills than you possess. People with such skills know exactly what I believe because I've been completely honest in detailing what I believe and why. And I continue to believe those things that no one presents a compelling argument against. Your posts do not constitute compelling arguments, or even arguments in the sense of debate.

@Patrick, you need to simply take away this feature from some users. I'm not going to cave in to these trolls and I'll gladly repost and bump this thread an indefinite number of times. I could easily write a script that checks the thread and reposts every time this post is deleted. That's what, 10 minutes of work?

In 2022, Black workers made up 29.0 percent of the Postal Service workforce — more than double their 12.6 percent share of the total U.S. labor force.

Fucking 🇳🇪🇳🇪!!!

In LA it's around 60%.

Around here all the postal workers seem to be Asian.

Postal Service is comms and transport of records, pouches, diplomacy, conveyance certifications, dates, locations and seals. Of course, modern communications have bypassed many of these functions but not completely. The analog flow of comms through he post offices is still important.

The local boots on the ground infiltrations of the Freemasons have often worked hand in hand with the Post Office. Often, the meeting halls are close to a main Post Office location. Hawaii was ruled by Freemasons operating in conjunction with the Post Office for a long time (leveraged from Pacific House in San Francisco). It explains the top down Masonic involvement in the DEW massacre and redevelopment project of Lahaina. The politicians, sheriff and officials are stooges.

In Britain, the king or queen are also the Postmaster General. Post offices are another one of those guild organizations that go up the line to centralized operations and standards in Switzerland. Postal services and police guilds all go back to Switzerland. The eight pointed hat of the police come from symbology of the Swiss Octagon. So if you were wondering why the postal service is so heavily involved in election fraud WITH IMPUNITY, that seems to be a clue. So, is the Post Office merely another form of occupancy by foreign powers disguised as a domestic government service?

Archie Hollins is a postal worker here. He is black. Archie is always professional, polite and kind to every customer that engages with him. He is due to retire soon. I have been thinking about contacting the local mayor to issue a proclamation to honor Archie since he has served the city for 30 plus years.

Blacks in Baltimore.

And who exactly arranged for these 'fly by night' postal workers to be hired?

Why is USPS so horrible?

Because it's basically just a giant pension fund that also happens to provide an essential service.

It’s Management. Upper level bureaucracy. It’s really bad. The carriers themselves do a good job. It’s the clerks and the postmasters. They do an awful job. And supervisor.

Also, the pension is not as good as you think for working six days a week for 8 to 10 hours. It’s a miserable existence

This thread is apropos.
We mailed our son's ballot up to his school address.
The envelope showed up ...empty.
Our election system is fake. LOL.
