Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I swear I'm the only one who never has these issues with packages. Am I super lucky or does the internet really over exaggerate this?
Ace did it better
Edit: To clarify, I’m not saying Gus stole this idea from Ace Ventura, I’m sure this happens plenty when you are churning out original stuff at the rate he is. Classy guy even tweeted about it already.
I used to carry mail for USPS, at my my office I'd say most of the abuse happened in transit to the office. Like, they came in big trucks already beaten to shit. Sorters other the offices and the big facilities just throw everything around, once it got to us carriers we did our best to make sure they didn't get any more fucked up
USPS has been mostly fine in my experience. Fedex on the other hand...
I live in a city neighborhood with rampant package theft. Any package that's left on a porch will be gone in a matter of minutes. My USPS mail carrier always knocks and leaves a notice if I'm not home. UPS is usually good about it too. Fedex, however, despite a large sign on my door saying "PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE PACKAGES UNATTENDED OR THEY WILL BE STOLEN" just plops em right down and runs off. They don't give a single fuck.
What people don't realize is it's almost never the mail carrier or anyone working there that's mishandling the packages.
The packages get unloaded onto a conveyor belt that disperse them onto a long ass slide. Then your nice 5 lb little box of glassware is sitting at the bottom of the slide waiting to be sorted when a 70lb chunk of iron ore wrapped in saran wrap comes hurtling down and smashes it to fucking shit.
It's never the handlers ruining your packages it's the other packages in the system.
For me USPS has been the most reliable and safest way to send packages.
But this video reminds me of Ace Ventura: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOJiEgxt7RY
Honestly I have more of a problem with UPS and FedEx than USPS. Not that any of them fuck up my packages. The problem is that UPS and FedEx continue to deliver to the wrong house. UPS is finally starting to deliver to my place, but FedEx doesn't give a fuck. It doesn't matter how many times I call FedEx to tell them and complain, they just keep going to the wrong house. :/
This makes me sad. I'm a rural carrier and I treat packages as if it were my own but I fall under the stereotype of delivery people not giving a shit. Of the packages that I've seen damaged, they were that way by the time they got to me. Some care and some don't, for sure.
Everybody has a story or two of when it goes wrong, but forgets the years of direct and proper service. The USPS is a marvel, and of you’ve ever lived outside of the states you start to appreciate it a lot more.
