Hey we were having a sale!

We were having a sale so we got a boatload of on-line sales as well as having the store be very buys. Of course today was the day the lazy ass UPS guy decides to take off so I had to pack them up and go stand in front of the UPS box until the relief driver showed. That was a pain in the balls but at least everything went our without a problem.

Any reason you couldn't use USPS flat rate Priority boxes and have the mail man actually pick them up?

UPS will pick them up, too, and be a lot more communicative about the time, and be better at tracking them, and might even be cheaper, depending.

The USPS quality is heavily dependent on the local postmaster.

I ship between 30 and 50 packages a day on a normal day, and I haven't found that to be the case.

My only mailroom advice is to listen to Twimble, and don't let Bud Frump tell you what to do.

Cody,

Good postmaster, probably. We used to do a million letters some days, where you'd drop off a truckload at night, and come home the next morning to find it in your mailbox.

But it was all about the ZIP codes.

Washing windows—the mailroom—what next?

Blake: LOL...terrible postmaster.

Chick was in permanent PMS mode. She actually called 911 on me one day because I argued with her.

The police chief himself arrived. Heard my story and laughed, told me to try and enjoy the rest of my day.

The UPS guy that delivers to my home is a great guy. But I've had lots of issues with UPS in general.

Not nearly as many as FedEx though. They flat suck.

Well, the only constant is change. My data's from 15 years ago...
