Don't believe that b.s. about the holiday mail. I've heard from my awesome postal carrier, Steve, that there is a new "system" at the post office that has made sorting mail a nightmare. Carriers can no longer come in early and sort their route's mail. The sorting is lousy, so the carriers come back with three times the amount of undeliverable mail they used to, and they don't get out on their routes until 1-2 hours after their usual time. Will more carriers be shot because of the lamebrain "managers'" decision?
