Want to avoid disappointment with USPS deliveries?

It's easy. Don't look up tracking numbers online- just wait for your package to be delivered. It almost certainly will be. image

    That's what I do. Tracking if for dealing with a package if it is late/lost/missing. --Jerry

    Most collectors have some level of obsessive compulsive disorder. They HAVE to check the tracking numbers, sometimes several times a day!

    "out for delivery" is my que to be home for the mailman if a signature is required.

    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    must be nice to live in an area where they actually come to your door!!! my lazy mailman just leaves the sorry we missed you tag in the box, doesn't even attempt to see if I am home!!! during the week the package is always back to the post office before they close, so at least I can go get it if I need the package right away. But if it's a Saturday, the post office closes early so no packages until Monday... it really sucks!!!!!!!!

    I feel that USPS has been super fast lately. I just moved to San Diego and it seems like they have it together here. Kudos.

    As soon as I right the check (even before I've mailed my payment) I start expecting delivery! OCD? You betcha!

    I shipped a package on a Tuesday. Buyer asked where it was on Thursday. Tried to open a not received case on Sunday, but had to wait until Monday. Yeah, the USPS delayed it for no good reason, but holy cow that's impatient!

    Same exact thing happens to me!!!

    I telecommute so I am home all day. I even taped a big note to my mailbox "I am home, knock hard if I have a package"

    Does the USPS carrier knock? NO!

    I just get the pink slip that they missed me

    I think the USPS carrier doesn't even take the boxes/packages with them, they just fill out a bunch of pink slips since they are lighter and easier to carry.

    This even happened with a recent Express Mail Guaranteed Overnight Delivery package.
