[QUOTE="1moredeer, post: 3009910, member: 112951"] We had the arctic blast roll through last Saturday afternoon followed by ice and snow Sunday and Monday. We went 4 days without receiving any mail except Amazon packages via USPS. When I called our local postmaster’s office to inquire about the lack of mail delivery, I was very curtly informed by a rather smart mouthed young lady (Not our postmaster) that the lack of mail delivery was due to the inclement weather and hazardous road conditions and all I needed to do was look out the window to see why it wasn’t delivered. I informed her that my eyesight was perfectly fine but I just couldn’t figure out why they didn’t bring our mail with them when they dropped off our Amazon packages. Again with the attitude, she quickly informed me that they “have a contract” with Amazon and those packages have to be delivered. After ending that call, I placed another call to our US representative’s office and spent another 15 minutes speaking with his assistant. She was very attentive and willing to help. I explained to her my confusion about the answer I received from the post office concerning the non delivery of our mail. It took a few tries before she finally understood what I was concerned about and was also disturbed by the answer I received from the post office. I went on to explain to her that we have elderly folks who receive their medications via USPS, a requirement by several supplemental insurance providers, especially for maintenance drugs. These folks were without medications for several days because it was too dangerous to deliver anything but Amazon packages??? She assured me that she would discuss my concerns with him and get back to me after they investigate the situation. Hopefully with it being an election year, someone will push the right button with one of our elected representatives who can actually get something done about the ridiculously poor service by the USPS.
