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.
QFT. Its pretty much incompetence these days. I have to use them for shipping physical products. Only reason I use them. All bills etc, paid over Internet or by phone.

They are privatized by the way. As for 2257 and adult they are all, USPS, FedEX, UPS, under the same guidelines now. All of them are horror shows for one reason or another.

Blarney Stone Pub reminded me of a trip to LAX yesterday. I asked a parking security guard a question, he was totally wasted. lol. I asked him, "Where are we?" He said, "Disneyland."
