As were my comments. I am on the record as never having any problems or difficulties with the USPS.

Hi Lou, I appreciate your comments. I knew that most of the responses were tongue-in-cheek with a little bit of the truth thrown in, but it really bothers me when Postal employees steal and it bothers me a lot when they steal baseball cards.
Take care, Rick

I had a card stolen from a postal worker in NC. I alerted the post office of the matter, and they acted like they could have cared less.

The PO does a great job, almost all the time. I have learned from bad experience that it only takes one time to realize that dropping a package in the mail without insurance is a gamble and you WILL inevitably lose that gamble sooner or later.
I sent what I thought was an innocent looking package that arrived in good shape, except for the fact that it had been neatly sliced open and relieved of its contents. The PO at the receiving end was kind enough to send photos of the slit envelope. The theft was reported and naturally that was the last I ever heard of it. Now I pay the insurance on anything over a minimal value. |

I'm curious what the theft rate really is among postal workers. Just from my own experience, I'd have to believe it is extraordinarily low. A lot lower than you would expect considering the variety and value of items that get sent through the mail. I think I've had one, maybe two, packages go permanently missing in all of my years of sending and ordering items through the US mail. Sometimes they took their own sweet time about getting it there, but that's a different story ...
