According to gillies

That's interesting, because both Federal Express and the United States
Postal Service deliver 98+ percent of their overnight packages on-time.

i'm tired of people bitching about lousy service from the Post Office.
Everyone is willing to overlook 2 or 3 problems with a private firm,
but let the post office screw up once, and they never forget.

I don't work for the Postal Serice, never have.  i have no affiliation
with them whatsoever.  i am just tired of all the unfair criticism.
