You guys must be on the list that says "lose or destroy these people's mail". Forty Rod, I've got a business mailing dvds all over the world, after 600 plus, mailed in an envelope with no insurance or delivery confirmation, I haven't lost one or had one damaged. The only thing I've lost was an order of 100 that disappeared from UPS. The complaint about Priority Mail being late is because of FED EX, CAN I SAY THAT AGAIN, FED EX. The Postal Service is not allowed to own planes, so we have a contract with FED EX to fly our Priority and Express mail. Needless to say, we do not get priority service on their planes. I spend 8 hours plus a day taking mail from e-bayers and other business people who ship quantities of mail daily and we rarely, that's RARELY DAMAGE ANYTHING. magazines and letters can get damaged because we are forced to run them through machines. Don't like it, can't help it. I should delete this now, cause the next time you get a magazine with a corner ripped, you're going to whine about thousands of laziy, stupid Postal Workers. Makes sense, don't it.
I can tolerate a "corner rip" as you put it, and I could tolerate it if it was maybe once a year or less, but when it is more often than not, AND I don't think your letter machine folded the cover/pages back, and left what I can only assume to be taco sauce on the pages inside. Don't think the robots are that good yet, so I can only assume it is someone on the UPS plane, or one of our postal workers Like I have said before there must be a cowboy fan or shooter in my p/o, cuz most of my stuff comes torn, pre read, folded or late. once the magazine that comes in an envelope even was opened (and if I am not mistaken, isn't that a federal offense?.
My last post in this thread was giving out some compliments to the service, but is still needs a lot of work. You can say what you want but bottom line is the Post Office said "Yup, we can get your letter/package/magazine from point a to point b in this amount of time for this amount of money." There is an assumption that it would arrive in at least one piece. And it is a contractual agreement that it would arrive is said amount of time and of course ARRIVE at all.
So, yer darn right when I pay good gold dust for a letter package or my magazines, I have a RIGHT to expect some what decent service. And I refuse to accept ANY excuses for my magazines to be PRE read and used as a napkin.
Simple as that
