hell, usps is only the last mile or two in a lot of cases now! UPS/FedEx deliver stuff to my local office and all they do is put it in my box...

Package delivery is the future of the USPS. Its prices are cheaper, delivery times the same, and new features like free tracking and insurance make it even more competitive.

Not to mention free pickup [UPS charges $12]. In the one area where the USPS is doing very well and competing hard, you choose to criticize it. No pleasing some people, I guess.

i wasn't criticizing it, i was stating that they are doing part of a private service's job now...

i still don't quite know how that works, do they contract with them or what?
