USPS Rant

Well, I know that I've been spamming a lot of blogs recently (that no one reads ^^), I go back to work tomorrow so I promise they'll slow down after today. But this is something that has been building for a while so I just need to get it out.

I despise USPS... Before joining the doll hobby, I rarely ordered anything online. But since, whether it is dolls from companies, Etsy purchases or second hand items for DoA's marketplace I've been shipping and receiving a lot of items through USPS. And almost every single time something goes wrong.

Tracking doesn't update, the items is lost for weeks travelling to places no where near the destination, or items are just lost in the abyss of nothing - kinda like where socks go when you lose them at the laundry mat. And every time something goes amiss calling them is worthless. Honestly, it's the heart wrenching worry of losing an item in transit that has me weary of purchasing things each and every time, plus the insane fees I pay to bring this worry upon myself. So what am I doing about it? My recent order will be sent to me via UPS and I will see if I suffer the same anxiety.

So I apologize for this rant - it was brought on by a tracking update 2 months after the original ship date.
