When they are good they are good when they are bad it’s a living nightmare. LOL

USPS has been hit or miss for me. Rifle stocks (with tracking) have been fast, the checks for them have taken over two weeks.
I have nothing clever to put here.

Considering the shear volume of mail and packages they have to go through, especially after 2020, I'd say they do a pretty good job. I agree in rural Illinois they are super good and the new mail carrier ain’t bad looking either a bonus

Just received three letters mailed to me from 60 miles away. The central Nebraska system must be slower than most. . Only took 9 days to arrive. I am just off the original Pony Express trail from the 1800s. That would have taken less than a day. Roy

I know everybody likes to rag on the post office for being super slow, etc. I am going to give them a “good job”. May never happen again but who knows.
A customer sent me a medium size flat rate priority mail box. Mailed it late Saturday morning (October 21st) from central Indiana.
It was at my door today (October 23rd) about noon. I’m in North Idaho.
That is really fast service - in my opinion!!! Must not have been castor.
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Bought 5 frozen green otter from LA early this year. Figured flat rate would be fine over 3 days. Took 5 days was
Fleshed them and salted them as soon as I got them. Was extremely lucky as I did not loose any. One had real small slip on the end of one leg.
Had a couple times where raw skulls took 5 and7 days. Those were pretty messy.
Never trust em. Just ship and hope.
