From what I've seen the problem is with managers that don't document things that crappy employees do. They can be fired, managers must do their job though.
I have more experience with the communications industry, not the USPS however.

I've been expecting a card since 12/11. It was sent first class but no tracking number.

I've seen issues before where an employee doesn't know the difference between First Class letter (no tracking) and First Class package (with tracking). Someone once tried to do the former to save me money because they thought the package would qualify and I was like no you don't understand - I have to have a tracking number...
