My mom loves telling the story of how when she was young (she's in her 60's) during Christmas they got mail twice a day and possibly she may have even said on Sundays.GRUMPY PIRATE wrote:sad, but I remember when they delivered twice a day.

Re: No Mail on Saturdays
Ugh. so I just got back from the post office dropping off envelops with 3D glasses in them. I had "DO NOT BEND" on them. They tell me they have to charge a surcharge on each one for "Do Not Bend" items unless it's in a box.

Man the USPS needs to just vanish. They are pushing all their customers away.
I asked the lady how much stamps were (since I have not mailed anything requiring stamps in about 2 years) and she looked at me like I had a rat on top of my head.

I had no idea they charge you extra for writing do not bend! That's interesting, how much extra do they whack you for it?

You really shouldn't wear a rat on your head when you go to the post-office.Honda Enoch wrote:

Sadly,the USPS will be but a shadow of it's former self. Kinda like when all the big video stores put the Mom & Pop stores under. Now their getting hosed by netflicks,on demand and the red box. My sis is a postal-carrier,she said years ago that UPS was the best thing that ever happened to USPS,(took a hell of a burden off them as far as packages go) Comin back to bite them in the ass.

Next time wear a coon-skin cap. At least they'll know you're a Davy Crockett fan. ;)
