    Thanks USPS for the false sense of hope....

    I have an order coming from Dutch that shipped Friday and I've been tracking it multiple times a day (I do this with anything I have a tracking number for). It finally gave me a delivery date of Monday February 2nd. I get home go to check the mailbox and pull down the door to get my gift and................................nothing .

    What a bummer and oddly enough the page still says yesterday is the expected delivery date. It has left Birmingham Alabama which is about an hour from me, so it should be here today.

    Usps has not been good at deliveries lately. Not updating tracking, packages just fall off the radar...etc...etc

    USPS tracking is useless half the time. FedEx and UPS seem to update it in real time. They do a lot of volume so I try not to give them a hard time. I usually just check when the order was sent, then calculate how long it will take based on their chart or previous orders.

    Sometimes I ask the Post Master to rush it to the customer, and sometime I ask him to torture the customer. Luck of the draw and what mood I am in depends on if you delighted of checking the neighbors mailbox to see if it was delivered to the wrong place. (Insert evil laugh)

    Seems like I'm let down by USPS more than happy. I'll take UPS and FedEx but I've noticed FedEx dropping my stuff off with USPS and it takes even longer to reach me.
