Originally posted by redrockcoulee What would it take to be able to double check the sorting, another hour per day for each letter carrier perhaps to prevent these few errors?
I was just kidding, I do understand what you are saying.
My response would be would be that since the sorting is done by machine, especially on these bulk packages with pre-printed labels either the machine is not well maintained, or the software has a bug, so the cost would be one-time vs an ongoing one.
Just to update, after my package made its trip to Atlanta, it flew back to Anaheim, then took a ride over to my local post office for delivery to me, Probably just added one extra day, but possibly was delivered at a loss.
I'm sure the post office margins are very slim if they are there at all.
