I’m not sure where the problem lies - what I have noticed is strange paths. For example, even back in “normal” times, I have had a package delayed as it went {after starting in California} Chicago - Indy - Ft Wayne - South Bend. I know that our mail is sorted in Ft Wayne these days, but I have also had packages go straight to South Bend from Chicago.

Don’t apologize it was a legitimate topic. Unfortunately there are too many taunting ‘haters’ that continuously interrupt conversations with there political jabs and insults.

I apologize to you for taking the bait and responding to one of them today. But, unfortunately everyone has a limit to their tolerance for hatred.

I’m the one who’s apologetic today.

A month ago on a Thurs day I orderd fiskar's weed puller, was told that my app was hacked, got that cleared and then they said under my two day delivery I would get it Monday as by then it was Fri. Sooo I got the confirmation that I would get it on Mon as Sunday they don't shop! Like bunch of crap they don't, my neighbor, on Sun got a packgage by a grey van with in big letters on it that said AMAZON! BUNCH OF HACKS!

That bum Bezos should checkout his employees instead of raising the fees on Prime!

You did nothing wrong.

Say HB have you tried this lately? https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-Your-Own-Wine-From-Grapes-at-Home/

About 23 years ago I hauled back about 15 bushel of wine grapes from my Wife's family Farm
in western NY. I remember the smell coming from the back of my pick up.

We used an old hand crank grape press & squeeszed those grapes into juice. I had to buy more glass Carboys it was a wonderful wine we enjoyed for many years.

That's PRESIDENT Trump to you.

It's pretty obvious by now that the people with history and experience with the postal service couldn't find their ass with either hand. Maybe it's time one of President Trump's rich business friends is given a chance to figure it out. If he can't, President Trump can fire him and find someone else to take a shot at it. It's called rewarding success instead of hangers on.

I agree. When the anti Trump people hijack the thread I cannot sit by and listen to the liberal crap. I wish everyone stays safe and votes in the next election.

No worry. Trump appointed a rich friend who has no history or experience with the Postal Service to become Postmaster General.

Things will only get worse.

Give it a rest already. Finish your pudding and tell the attendant you're ready for bed.

My recent experience with the Post Office confirms your prediction. I ordered a part for my printer from ebay last month. The tracking info showed it was received by my local P.O. and then sent to BWI airport for no apparent reason. The most recent tracking info shows it in Gaithersburg Post Office.

He was appointed in May 2020 by unanimous selection of the Board of Governors of the United States Postal Service. I don't think Trump is on the Board of Governors!

It is not effective until 6/15/2020

Louis DeJoy The New Postmaster General.

DeJoy, a North Carolina native, has played a prominent role in Republican politics, particularly since Trump won the presidency in 2016. He has given more than $2 million to the Trump campaign or Republican causes since 2016, according to the Federal Election Commission, including a $210,600 contribution to the Trump Victory Fund on Feb. 19. He has given more than $650,000 to the Trump Victory Fund and more than $1 million to the RNC.

No. Trump is not on the Board of Governors, but they know what he wants, and did it.
America will regret losing the United States Postal Service, as Trump drains the Swamp.
