U.S. Postal Service more proof the government more efficient than the private sector

7. I just wish they would quit misdirecting packages

At least 6 times in the last couple years, I have had packages mis directed all over the country. The final distribution center for my area is in Detroit and once it leaves there I should receive it the next day.

Somehow it makes it to Detroit as planned, but then instead of going to my local post office, it goes on a road trip to other states. One time I mailed a package to northern Indiana. Goes to Detroit first, but then shows in transit for 4 days ending up in San Francisco. Another three days in transit to go to Oakland, Ca. Finally ends up on Indianapolis and eventually gets delivered 10 days after mailing.

Had it happen several times; the first time I said stuff happens, but after the third or fourth time, I just dont get it.
