I remember the days not long ago a package that was ordered mail order would take six weeks to two months to get to you. And we accepted that happily.
Now we want it now, or we go apoplectic.
Hiring practices at the US postal service give extraordinary preference to the veterans we so revere.
The imaginary lazy [censored - Hard Stop on oblique posting!] thieving slacker is a former military hero.
That, my doublegun friends, is what they call cognitive dissonance....
In my entire life, I cannot recall a time when it was accepted that a package by mail "would take six weeks to two months to get to you."
If sending a package really took that long in the not so distant past, Grandma would have had to send your Christmas gift before Halloween to be confident it would arrive on time.
It seems the Gray Man is old enough to remember shipping packages via the Pony Express or Stagecoach.
Quite a few people are able to share stories of poor service, lost or damaged goods, and inability to resolve losses through insurance claims. At the same time, the cost of shipping has increased a great deal. But the Gray Man thinks we're all just imagining an issue where none exists.
Somehow, I'm just not able to accept that the "lazy [censored - Hard Stop on oblique posting!] thieving slacker" responsible for poor service and theft is a former military hero. Much more likely a DEI or Affirmative Action hire, but our Liberals will never admit it.
And I also wonder why the word ([censored - Hard Stop on oblique posting!]) has been censored and subject to a "Hard Stop on Oblique Posting"??? You can hit the QUOTE box in this Post to see the word, which is in no way offensive except to people who live by it. I wonder whose feeling got hurt now?
