    That was a well-spent stamp

    So...I mail this.....and receive it back a couple of weeks ago.

    Anybody notice anything kinda funny about it? I mean, besides the mold and mildew that has accumulated on the envelope since the time it was mailed?

    Surprised it didn't come with a bill for storage.

    You had the Halloween costume lost that same way didn't you?
    People keep asking if I'm back and I haven't really had an answer. But now, yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back.

    YES! I forgot about the Halloween costume. I also had a handmade holster lost for 3 months, or nearly so there.

    Is it just my Post Office here?

    That was a well-spent stamp

    My daughters two children both have birthdays a week apart in October. I decided to send them sweaty cash this year so I got them each a card and placed a crispy $50 in each one one them. Mrs. boss warned me not to mail cash and write them each a check instead. Since my intelligence is far superior to hers I convinced her that the kids would rather get a crispy $50 bill rather than some ole check. I then mailed them to their home in Chicago at the same time from our box at home.

    Four days later I got a call from the six year old thanking me for the card/loot. When my daughter got back on the phone I asked about the 8 year olds card/loot, I was informed that she had not received it.

    Bad news/bad news: I'm out 50 bucks and I have to tell Mrs. boss she was right about not sending cash,meaning my intelligence is not far more superior than hers (which as we know was a given).

    Anyway, I waited a few more days to see if the lost card/loot showed up. It did not, so I got another card and wrote a check which meant I had to get another ear full from the Mrs.

    Fast forward three weeks later to this past Monday... both cards showed up. The one I originally sent was all mangled up but the loot was still inside.

    So now the one kid got two cards with $50 in each one, so the other kid wants to know why his sister got two cards/loot while he only got one. So guess what, now I have to go get another card and send more loot to the other one.

    The money part wasn't as big a issue as continuing to hear the four dreaded words....

    Get one of these apply it to the front and back of the envelope and mail to yourself at work address.

    See if that improves the service

    Lol.

    Percentage-wise, they do great, I suppose, when you consider the thousands of pieces of mail they've handled for me over years. But it darn sure isn't 100%.
