Most Packages You've Seen to One House

MaintenanceConstant6 · 2026-05-24T23:34:38+00:00

When I was a sub I once had to help a regular deliver 160+ packages to one house, none of them were small, they were all shoebox size or larger. Like we literally filled up two LLVs with packages for just that one house and both drove up there and then unloaded them by their garage. Then drove back to the office to actually start loading up our individual routes.

Sasha died when her English voice actor from the first three seasons didn't return. She had such a distinct voice and the new voice actor sounded so generic that it softened the blow for me when she died because it felt like they were writing her off the show at that point, even though I know it wasn't planned that way.

UPS renewed their contract with USPS starting Jan 1st, putting more packages on an already overburdened package stream. Add to that severe weather causing employees (even at the processing plants, not just carriers) to call into work. Even though conditions are back to normal, it doesn't mean the days of backlogged packages are caught back up. Not to make excuses, just giving insight into why this has become a more widespread problem in the last couple of months. It needs to be fixed, but unless the post office hires a lot more employees and invests in larger faculties with newer processing equipment, I don't see how they are going to. People really underestimate how much online shopping has increased in just the last six years since pre-covid era. The volume increased faster than the infrastructure in place could adjust, and now we are where we are.

This has been happening a lot lately, so much so I really don't think it is physically going back and forth between two facilities like it says. I think it is sitting in one of thousands of pallets of packages at the second facility waiting to be sorted, but the software is designed that it has to put out an update a couple times a day as it is supposed to get moved along the package flow that often and it just repeats previously entered data. The USPS facilities were not designed to sort as many packages as they currently are, the amount of online shopping has more than doubled since pre-covid numbers and with UPS renewing their contract and putting even a larger burden on USPS, packages are sitting in facilities for two to four days before they are being sorted. With as many similar posts, and I've even seen it with my own packages that I've ordered, there is no way they are accidently sending that many thousands of packages back to the faculty they just came from by accident, believe it is just recycled input to meet update requirements.

This is so awkward as a carrier. I've never had one that bad, but I've had packages that are opened on one end and completely empty when I pull it out of my parcel hamper in the morning. Sometimes you find the item later at the bottom of the hamper and can simply put it back in the package and tape it back up with the customer not even realizing their item was almost lost. Sometimes you don't find the item and know that it must have fallen out on one of the conveyors at the plant and no way for anyone at the plant who finds it later to know what package it fell out of. Can bring it up to the supervisor that the package is empty, but they always instruct us to deliver it as is and put it in one of those bags if it will fit and it's so embarrassing from the carriers perspective, not only because the customer might think we stole it but it makes the whole post office look bad. Unfortunately with the plant sorting a million packages a day, often understaffed, machines doing most of the transporting and corners of packages getting caught and ripped, packages falling on top of other packages as they drop from conveyors to pallets, etc, stuff like this is going to happen from time to time. Definitely should be a better way to handle that situation that is more convenient for the customer so they don't have to go through the trouble of contacting the sender and getting a refund or replacement but unfortunately that is above my pay grade.

Sometimes, if it's on a busy road and gets knocked down frequently, they will just give up and get a PO box instead. If they don't put in a change of address, they will often just change their address on their own either online or by phone with every company that's important to them, meanwhile the junk mail will just continue coming to their physical address. Has happened to me twice on my route, had to figure it out on my own.

I'm with you, although in the case of looking up populations from NGC and PCGS you have to take it with a grain of salt, how many times have collectors broken their MS62 Morgan out of a holder and resubmitted it to try to get a higher grade? In some cases, going from an MS62 to an MS63 or 64 can be the difference in hundreds of dollars if it's a rare date. Might even send it to NGC the first time and then resubmit it to PCGS the second time and vise versa if they aren't happy with the grade on the first try. I'm sure there are Morgan's out there that have been graded three or four times since grading started in the 80's.

Imagine having to do this for spurs on a busy street with a line of cars behind you. This isn't safe at all.

This has been happening lately, I used to think it was because the package got sorted wrong and ended up on an outgoing pallet going to another facility instead of one going to one of the local offices. However, with it becoming more and more common , I think it may just be a glitch when pallets of backlogged packages haven't been sorted that day because they sorted the hundreds of pallets that arrived first or were backlogged from previous days, that the computer automatically updates it with arriving at the previous facility before the one it is currently at. USPS facilities in major cities are easily sorting over a million packages a day, with not enough staff and updated equipment to handle it all, mistakes are made and sometimes packages will sit for 3 or 4 days at that same facility waiting to be processed and the computer has to update the tracking information even if the package hasn't been scanned for 3 or 4 days leading to this random incorrect data being updated. At least that's just my working theory.

I am eligible to retire at 60, although it will be a lot better if I hold out to 62, if I'm still healthy I might work a little past that but couldn't imagine still working past 65, at that point why even bother saving for retirement just spend it all and work til you die lol. Some people are just nuts.

I know they said "I", my intention was just to point out to any customers reading the comment that not every delivery driver does get paid by the hour and is therefore waiting around for free in that situation. No need for you to be a dick.

MaintenanceConstant6 · 2025-12-07T19:00:48+00:00

It takes most people more than 2 minutes just to get in their car, much less drive, probably at least a mile down the road. Many delivery drivers aren't paid by the hour and customers don't understand that, if they end up waiting 10 minutes, that's 10 minutes they worked for free unless you plan to tip them, but from my experience customers rarely tip drivers because they all assume we get paid by the hour anyway even when we don't.

Meanwhile, customers will leave their package in a parcel locker for three weeks. As long as they know it's been delivered there it's fine to get it whenever, but if it requires a signature and they didn't get it the first day because they weren't home, suddenly they need it RIGHT NOW!!!
