The post office right now is JUST TERRIBLE!!!!! (thanks to trump and his
lackey Louis Dejoy whom trump personally put in as postmaster general) I just
received 2 checks from customers yesterday post stamped 12-10 and 12-12...this
is just disgusting! It all started when Louis Dejoy started just destroying
massive mail sorting machines throughout the entire united states in bigger
(democratic leaning) cities!! this is not political folks......this is just
PURE EVIL!!! And he was doing trump's bidding thinking this would delay mail
in ballots in the November election....it's just sad really.

My guess is that more than just I on this list, have had problems with the
post office recently. I currently have a package sent to Western Pennsylvania
that is out over 30 days. Things are getting better - I got a package of silent
animate DVDs from New York media mail in 5 days yesterday and some comics also
media mail arrived in 12.One of the key problems here is the virus which has
deeply affected the regional sorting hub in Detroit (and it seems elsewhere
based on my tracking packages-there are obvious regional centers that are in
crisis). As such I found it interesting yesterday in talking to postal workers
(ship a lot, you know a lot of postal workers- I am also on the local post
office advisory board so I talk to a lot of people about the post office) to
discover there is no plan to vaccinate postal workers! Yep the best way to do
it is offer it on the job- all these folks locally are in the post office
picking up or sorting mail at key times of the day. You bring in the vaccine
and get every worker who wants one gets it at the same time. I mean it ain't
rocket science and it is a federal program. Right now a key part of commerce
due to the pandemic and a key support for all types of small businesses is the
post office. It is a essential that it works well. A lot of little main street
stores are only surviving because they are selling on line. So I am sending off
an email to my Senators telling them this needs to be addressed and with a new
administration coming in with people who think government should work - maybe
we can see some solutions- Best George Hagenauer
