OT: USPS Breaking My Chops

USPS recently lost two packages I sent on the same day. One had tracking and made its way to the local PO of the purchaser and then it never moved again. The other didnt have tracking info and was also never delivered. These two instances were the first packages I ever lost. Im still holding out hope they both show up someday,somewhere.

I had no idea that was possible. Did the postage rate change or something?

I also had to deal with the expired electronic stamp. Had about a dozen packages come back to me one day because it was stamped a day earlier. Had to wait on the stupid line for 30 minutes just for them to restamp everything.
I asked why this happened. They told me that every so often someone checks individual packages to make sure the postage is correct.

This happened to me last week as well. I was doing something right next to a terrible post office that I try my best to avoid, but went in to mail my item, and was told "I can't take that" about 10 times as I tried to explain that it is U.S. postage, and of course I can use it any time I like. So, I gave up and went to my main post office, who took it without evening batting an eye. It sucks that we are paying the wages of some of these terrible postal employees. Some of them (most of them maybe) are great, of course.
