31. If?

I recieve monthly mail from some folk i work with whos office is about 45 minutes away by car. Before dejoy, it reliably arrived the day after they sent it, sometimes same day.

Now it takes anywhere from 3 days to a week to arrive from that same office.

Before dejoy there was an occasional lost piece of mail but not much worry.
Now If i forget to respond to things mailed to me within a few days, i get calls making sure i got it, rather than it getting lost.

I will grant that USPS is still more reliable than the delivery services I have to deal with on the regular. But the average guy now has concerns about USPS dependability.


Why is Dejoy still in place? We are now several months past the ends of the terms of two more USPS board members, which would give a democraticly appointed majority and the ability to replace him. And we have control of the senate. I doubt even S&M would throw up a roadblock to getting that done
