I agree. When I moved here 15, 16 years ago I was stunned that it could take 10 days for a birthday card to reach the Midwest and had a birth announcement from the Midwest take 15 DAYS from the date of the postmark to reach The V's. Over the years had to just relax and accept "it is what it is". I still get so tired of the number of letters I get in my pigeon hole box addressed to other people. The ads don't concern me so much but I have received what is obviously pension plan papers, IRS letters, and other mail which am sure are very important and possibly time sensitive. Lived in several states over many years and never had to carefully read the address on every piece of mail like one has to do here....but again, life is very short so why waste time "fighting" it. I do wish we had "real" USPS people handling our mail, not a guarantee of more professional work behavior of course, but I just go back to all those years before retirement without a single piece of mail belonging to neighbors put into our mailbox, and the timeliness of mail delivery. That's the "old days" I guess...LOL !
