    Usps says delivery of my MudHole Pkg by 9:00pm the 5th. In my experience, It will be at the local distribution center sometime the 6th, Maybe, and I'll get it Monday the 9th...Just saying. Cost of the mail service goes up, yet actual service goes down...

    Checked informed Delivery Package Tracking this morning...My Package made it to North Houston at 10:59 PM last night. Not Springfield, Mo. It still Has to go through the Distribution Center in Kansas City, Ks as ALL our mail does, then come here and go through two centers here before it goes to the delivery hub. And one asks whats wrong with the USPS??? Way too many intermediate stops...

    Usually my packages race across the US and get to the local distribution center and then sit there until they are past due date and late....lol.

    And yet, they are constantly raising the cost of postage. Even getting mine to the "out for delivery" stage does not necessarily mean It will be delivered. I'm on a "Training route for the mail carriers in Springfield, and have still had things either not delivered, delivered to a neighbor, or delivered days later with no explanation...Aggravating to say the least.

    Checking again this Am. Package arrived North Houston Jun 03 @ 10:52 PM, Departed South Houston this morning Jun 05 @ o1:17 Am...Sat around there 26-1/2 hours...Can't believe Houston doesn't generate more mail than that. Question is, how many more lay overs is it going to have???

    I just checked the progress of my package on USPS Tracking. No further entries since it left N. Houston, TX. In 20 minuets or so, it will be 36 hrs. According to DOT, Dept. Of Transportation, the driver would have had to have a 10 hr rest period and a 30 min break. Still that leaves 25.5 hours to make a 11hr drive...Totally unacceptable. Come on USPS, you Have to do better than this....So aggravating.
