Sorting time also does not get equated into delivery time.... it is just something they have to do before they can deliver. Have you noticed they are always rushing around if they have to hand deliver anything?

    A lot of these carriers would welcome getting fired so they could draw unemployment pay and not have to work their tails off.

    Knowing this I give my carriers a lot of slack and always thank them.
    Working long hours is no excuse for not doing your job. People who do a half ass job just because they worked a long day don't deserve any slack. Employees need to do what's expected of them and do their best to do it right or get a new job.

    Delivering mail to the right address and closing the box is not hard and the failure to do so is simply incompetence.

    I have zero input as to how you go about filling a complaint and while I'm sure it won't do any good, I say do it. Worth a shot.

    Exactly! They had a long day??? Give me a break. Try running a 14hour convoy, in a combat zone, with 3hrs of prep, and then 2hrs of post operation PMCS, gear cleaning, and item inventory. USPS employees have it fvcking MADE!
