What on earth is going on with the mail?

[Calvin45]

Your right Calvin45 that things arn't like they used to be.I remember when a mailman stopped and helped me fix a fence our 2 pigs broke open and still delivered our mail all withing 15 minutes.
That would not be done today
Edit to say I was 13 years old at the time

That's right. You know I haven't been around as long (I'm 31) but i used to be a pastor and do still officiate funerals around here. Can't tell you how many eulogies I've heard where that generation that came before the baby boomers all agree "we were poor but didn't know it". It's not just the system or the government it's the common ground of neighbourliness that's gone. People used to look out for each other, have each others back.

Your both right, nothing is like it was?? But everyone is mail ordering, not enough carriers. My mail came in at 5.pm ever day now it's 5. to 8.pm . I fill sorry for my mail courier. He's working his a.. off to keep up. But its the Canadian fault.

Regarding mail, Govt. wants Fed X and UPS and USPS to keep a log of address shipping or receiving firearms or firearms parts.

Ya pretty interesting for an outfit that can't manage the postal service or AMTRACK.

I received my hotsauce! Those evil Frenchmen did not drink it! It's in good condition.

The tracking app STILL says it's in Montreal
