I have found that the USPS varies greatly from post office to post office. Some offices are lousy & lazy, others are on the ball. Our cities post office is pretty bad. We sometimes go several days without a piece of junk mail, followed by a large delivery. Staff at post office are rude. Mail that is held often doesn't start again until my wife goes to the post office, even though we have asked for it to be delivered at the end of the hold. All kinds of silly stuff.
If you want bad mail service, try Brazil. I lived there for a few years in several cities (within the same state). It was frustrating because each post office seemed to set their own rates. Some were more expensive than others. Some would invent new rules that applied only to them. Others would ignore rules. Very frustrating.
