  @TwinFlames__777 @exploringmars_ i even have Informed Delivery through USPS where i get a daily email with pictures of any mail or packages that are supposed to be delivered that day, because i live in an apartment and want to make sure my stuff doesn’t sit outside the front door all day or get stolen.

  @FedEx is terrible anyway 🙄 @USPS always deliver my **** on time even during the pandemic but fedex has a huge delay on delivering packages and no turn over time like wtf

  @Eccentech @USPS I hate when they do this, especially when my packages arrive later than 2 days. "Ah, the customer's not gonna care if we delay it a little. They never check the shipping status anyway"

  Those companies that compete with the USPS and promise they can do everything? I've made deliveries for all of them when they made commitments they couldn't make good on by themselves.

  @iAnonPatriot As they should have! I'm a former USPS employee and proud to have been one. It angers me when I see horrible people working for the service. It's hard to get terminated after the initial 90 day probation and that's a problem

  @lynnstolze @WallStreetApes The US Postal Service (USPS) is grappling with a severe financial crisis, projecting it could run out of cash by February 2027 without intervention, due to declining mail volumes, rising costs, and prior unfunded mandates. To preserve liquidity for payroll, supplier payments, and mail delivery, the USPS Board of Governors announced on April 9, 2026, that it will temporarily suspend its employer contributions to the defined-benefit portion of the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) starting April 10. This affects postal workers and other federal civil servants under FERS but does not halt employees' own contributions, Thrift Savings Plan matches, or Social Security payments. The pause is expected to free up about $2.5 billion this fiscal year, with no immediate impact on current retirees' benefits or pensions—similar to a 2011 deferral during another crunch. USPS is also seeking a 4-cent stamp price hike for added revenue.

  @ViralVideos This will devastate delivery services, Ubers, cabs, usps, Amazon, ups, FedEx, DoorDash, etc.

  @NHbskraus @CardPurchaser How long ago was it "delivered"? I've had items with the ESU number arrive via USPS sometime a week+ after being "delivered". Sometimes I think it's more the norm than a problem

  The US Postal Service lost $9 billion last year and warns it could run out of money within 12 months. Meanwhile, new Labor Dept data shows most new jobs created went to women, largely in healthcare. Two very different stories shaping the US economy. #USPS #Economy #Jobs

  @PokeCardsDaily @USPS I recently had that happen. I got a painting (yes, an actual framed painting, very small), and they stuck it in my box with no way for me to get it out. I had to leave a note for them to drop it at my door since the back where they place mail is wider than the door I open to get it. He threw it at my door the next day. I heard the thud. Wonderful service!

  Instead of cutting the fat at the top with postmasters, MPOOs etc… making over 6 figures a year @USPS wants to screw the ones who actually do the work. We need @DOGE to come in and get rid of all the waste and fraud. Talk to employees on what they see is the problem and for solutions

  @Libs_OfChicago @USPS But they want us to trust them with mail deliveries

  @DFrankRobi99950 We should just let the USPS die, let Amazon,FedEx, UPS handle all mail delivery.
