People want answers about what’s going on at the post office. Lack of staff and poor management are both on the minds of folks who have no idea when their mail will arrive. Montana residents are not happy about their USPS mail service. And it’s been this way for months.
Thankfully, the vast majority of people who commented recently in an online forum weren’t blaming postal carriers themselves. Since they’re the most visible USPS employee, it would be easy to simply point the finger there. But that wasn’t really the case.
- My mail is delivered after 8pm at least once a week. It is happening. I appreciate my carrier for their diligence.
- I get my mail once a week if I am lucky, packages are constantly dropped at the wrong address even after repeated conversation with thee. Or the packages sit there for weeks and they won’t give them to me because “they don’t know if they are on a truck or not and they are not going to check.”
- I have a few friends working for the post office in different areas and they are all run like garbage! In ND their trucks barely run.
Nobody can argue that mail delivery in the greater Bozeman area has been noticeably worse over the last couple of years. Is that a real problem? That depends on what you’re expecting in the mail.
