I thought this was bound to happen due to the sabotage of the post office that is somewhat bipartisan but increased with Trump term 1. But yesterday my grandmother just got a birthday card she had sent to me two years ago returned as "undeliverable" despite the address being correct and the postage paid. And this also caused me to find out that this happened to several other relatives, though without the two year delay, despite the address and postage being definitely correct.

I was a USPS worker for about 80 days until I got fired for smacking my mirror on a tree

The volume of work is insane as are the standards you're held to. They tell you you're guaranteed one day off a week and then take it away because there's not enough people.

They get on you for being too slow but then also say safety first and safety is no excuse for being slow

Minimal training, the driving "training" was basically "do you already know how to drive this thing" and overall just not a lot of support.

So of course this shit happens.
