For us, it's not just the USPS in general, but the doofuses they hire to handle mail. Our local mail carrier looks like some hillbilly from the backwoods, and is constantly messing up people's mail (we have one of those community mailboxes): putting mail in the wrong box, putting parcels in the wrong locker or leaving the wrong key in your box, forgetting to leave the key entirely, or leaving your locker key in somebody else's box.

Several times he's left packages with our house number, but to a different street - like, he just looks at the number, eh? Cripes.

We've complained about him, but to no avail. Packages sometimes vanish en route, coming from a city a couple hundred miles away, but zigzagging all over the United States before getting here.

Last month, we were DESPERATELY waiting for a very important package that was several days late. Finally the online tracking said "DELIVERED: INDIVIDUAL PICKED UP PARCEL AT POST OFFICE." Whaaaaattttt? Who the heck picked up our package?????!!! My wife was hysterical. I went down there and the package was sitting on the shelf, waiting to be delivered.

We have those "community" mailboxes, very common in semi-rural subdivisions. They are constantly leaving our mail with somebody else, putting a package in the parcel locker but not leaving us the key, or leaving the key with the wrong person, or leaving us a key to somebody else's parcel, or leaving the key to the wrong locker, etc. etc. It never ends.
