   There's not been ANY improvement at all in a couple years; the service   
   is worse and worse and not just at your home.  At the post offices,   
   inside the post offices look run down, the fees are horrible, they   
   stop putting out supplies they used to give away, they are   
   merchandising stuff more (like Postal teddy bears, trucks, banks etc),   
   their workers are not dressed appropriately half the time, and the   
   online stamp service used to arrive in one or two business days, now   
   it takes a week or more.   
      
   I wonder where all the money is going?????  Give me a break it's about   
   gas prices.  The workers in several of the post offices here don't   
   even have air conditioning!  I think someone at the top is living high   
   on the hog.   
      
   And you are right; they SHOULD be taking care with ALL their mail.   
   And how many times have you gotten an envelope back that said do not   
   bend and it was bent, ripped or crumbled?  Do they give you your money   
   back?  If it was fast food, you'd get another meal or an apology or   
   your money back; why not the post office?
