Trump really did us a great favor when he appointed our new head of USPS.
He seems to be living up to his promise as to how he'll be running things.
And, I suspect Amazon is partially to blame for the quality of service I've been getting because of replacing their product with someone else's, ...probably just my paranoia.
I had purchased an item through Amazon that went bad.
It was an Amazon product.
I was already unhappy with it because of the restrictions Amazon placed on its use, very similar to the types of restrictions that are placed on software.
They're basically still the owner and you're simply just a user, even though you bought it.
I replaced it with another brand, but was forced to purchase it through Amazon.
I ordered 5 different items, all connected to the main item's use, on Oct. 23.
Amazon split into 5 different orders/shipments because they all came from different vendors.
OK, that's reasonable.
Then ...
USPS labeled 2 items as "undeliverable" when they reached Kona, for whatever their reason.
The third item's tracking number on Amazon only says it was picked up by USPS back about the 23rd, but on the USPS website it says it was sent to Saginaw, Mich. and delivered there.
It's officially still in transit per Amazon, running late and due today, not likely to show up per USPS' status.
That's 3 out of 5 gone badly so far.
One item was delivered.
That's 4 out of 5.
The final item, #5, was received in Honolulu this morning.
Baring unforeseen circumstances, it should be delivered tomorrow, only 2 weeks in transit.
Not bad for what the new head of the USPS said he'd do.
Won't know its status until it either shows up, or I'm notified of it's disappearance - tomorrow, or whenever.
If my experience is now typical, shipping for the coming holiday season is going to be a complete diastaser.

Was a Democrat until gun control became a knee jerk, then a Republican until the crazies took over, back to being a nonpartisan again.
This time, I can no longer participate in the primary.
