The holidays have nothing to do with it. Our mail service went to "poop" ever since the USPS started delivering Amazon packages. Evidently they are so desperate for money that they took an already supposedly overburdened work force and threw that load on them. I don't know about all that but just like in the linky, we have days of no mail service then get two deliveries in one day. I have repeatedly filed complaints on line to no avail. We have a very nice lady postal carrier but she doesn't deliver our mail every day and I caught her up at the local stop and rob smoking "something" in her mail jeep. We had problems getting our mail after the last snow/ice last year. I talked to her about it one day and she said they have to have those jeeps in by dark (not true, our mail currently gets delivered in the dark all the time) and they have to start at the beginning of their route everyday even if they never finished the end of their route the previous day. That is just flat out STOOPID if true.
I have problems with getting bills by email and snail mail (thanks Roadrunner and Outlook). I have had to set up auto bill pay on some utilities to avoid them wrecking my credit and or cutting off my service. This country is going to hell in a hand basket...not that there was ever any doubt in my mind.
