It seems to me a very significant piece of information is missing in the discussions.
What percent of the so called "TV mail" is for within TV only? I would guess that the majority (greater than 80%) of the mail is for non villages destinations. In my earlier post in this thread I suggested imagining your living room filled floor to ceiling and wall to wall with "mail". Now from that room full of mail sort out the 20% or less pieces destined for delivery in TV. A point being overlooked or even minimized is the sheer volume of mail the postal system is designed to handle. The system(s) are geared for volume. When one stops to consider the millions/billions of pieces of mail from the millions of points of origination and the millions of points of destination, hourly/daily, it is truly remarkable what is actually accomplished. And out of the millions and billions there will always be a very small percentage of isolated incidents. An interesting subject with a multitude of perspectives!!!!!! |

I believe it was Harvard Business School that said the FedEx model was doomed to failure.

I grew up in a small town in Pennsylvania and there, as well as most of the other small towns in the area, there is a LOCAL mail slot for things going within the town. This would allow the local post office to simply sort that mail like they do mail coming in from the hubs. Seemed to work great at literally no extra cost.

Or you could have hand delivered it yourself in 15 minutes, but that is, of course, none of my business.

Putting your mail in someone’s home mailbox (if we had one) is actually illegal. Google it. Hand delivery is a great idea to me.
I understand where the OP is coming from but the way the mail is handled is necessary based on volume. I think someone’s name on this thread is Newman! If we mail something where time is important we go to the Post Office on Teague Trail. Great results every time. |

2-day service is 2 business days after the package is shipped.....therefore it arrived on time.
