<p>[QUOTE="krispy, post: 2041507, member: 19065"]USPS carriers and some clerks at the counter are downright lazy and like to challenge customers.

I've complained many times, formally in writing and submitted online as anyone can and should do, about poor customer service by carriers and inadequate branches, but it never gets resolved and the same, tardy and sloppy service goes on.

If it's their employees protected salary and pension that allows this culture of laziness to take root something needs to change and we ought to hold individuals more accountable. If other public servants are held accountable in their positions, so too should those carrying private letters and communications. There is zero sense of duty and a total lack of care in handling of patrons mail, things we even pay a service fee for to have sent and brought to us on time and securely.
