    The post is now on a 7-Day Target for delivery. My entire life 2 to 3 days, including the day you put it in the mail, within 2 to 3 days anywhere in the country it would be delivered. By 2020 it had went down to 3 to 5 days, and now it’s just went up to a full seven days. I have to wait 7 days for a piece of mail now. How people are not more upset about this I do not know I am fucking livid with rage.

      Honestly? The only thing that comes in the mail is bills and ads. I can’t remember the last time I mailed something, and it’s very rare that something I care about is coming to me by mail. Why do I care if the ads I’m about to sort through and throw away took 2 days or 7 days to get to me? I don’t want them either way.

        A lot of us order things through the mail. It is essential to the small business that both parties pretend to care about while they Define it as a thousand employees or something large. And allow tax brakes by subsidiaries of multinationals under those limits but that’s another story.

        The mail is essential, and you might be happy for physical delivery service given the way that electronic communications have been going recently.
