As much as I distrust the US Government, I would chalk up anything having to do with the US Post Office to incompetance. I used to live aroung the corner from the Morgan General Mail Facility in NYC, which I believe handles more mail than any other facility in the world - about 12 million pieces a day. Across the street from the facility is an Irish Pub named The Blarney Stone. Many times I would be the only one drinking there who wasn't wearing a postal uniform. They would file in and out, all day/night long whether it was one of their three 20 minute breaks or their breakfast/lunch/dinner breaks - the facility goes 24/7 - 365 and the Blarney Stone goes 8am - 4am 365 days a year.
I use the US Post office maybe twice a year, and I always regret it. They are an obsolete system that should be privatized. Technology and Customer Service and not the priorities of the Post Office - counting the days until their bloated pensions kick in is all they think about.
