United States Postal Service woes continue

I suggest the United States Postal Service change it’s name to be more accurate.  It should be simply United States Postal.  Like so many, I am constantly frustrated by the lack or service whereby letters take days to go to a neighboring town and payments for services often arrive late despite being mailed long before they are due.

I know publishers of newspapers are especially concerned as customers complain about papers arriving more than a week after the date of publication.

As an example, I received the Aug. 1, 6 and 13 Caledonian Records on Saturday, Aug. 15.   I received the Au. 3, 5, and 17 editions on Aug. 19.  This is all too common.

To make it clear, I do not blame any of the employees at the local post offices.  They are all pleasant and helpful despite being short handed and over worked.
