An Example of Government Inefficiency

 

I sent a letter, Priority Mail, paid $10, from Madison NJ to Arlington VA, It was sent to a senior USPS official regarding another Post Office refusal to deliver another priority mail package. The distance from Madison to Arlington is 233 miles. The package traveled about 1100 miles in the most circular route ever, back and forth through Merrifield a half dozen times. BTW, it is still not there, they are closed on Saturdays and there is no way for the USPS to deliver mail to the USPS!

As they say, you cannot make this up! One can ask what the real costs of this mishandled piece of paper really is and then ask why the USPS is in financial straights? 

This is a "Where's Waldo" to the nth degree.
