 You are entitled to your opinions.  Whether they are based on perception or 
 reality is a matter of opinion as well.  While you are obviously 
 dissatisfied the majority of consumers are not.  The Postal Service has a 
 high customer service satisfaction rating.  Independent surveys support 
 accurate and prompt delivery across the nation.  Instead of carping about 
 your experiences I would suggest you have meaningful dialogue with your 
 local postmaster.  Make your concerns known and present rational and 
 reasonable argument for your position.  Otherwise, STFU!
