<p>[QUOTE="NanaB, post: 10395726, member: 7638"][USER=37]@verybrad[/USER] theft is actually a smaller occurrence from letter carriers. More common with mail handlers but again not common. Things will take longer since DeJoy completely & not for the better closed way too many processing centers where mail regardless of how it is sent is sorted for the proper destination. He also moved letter carriers out of postal offices which creates a delay if there is a federal holiday an even longer delay. For claims, pictures, pictures & more pictures prior to mailing. If you are mailing other than 1 st class mail the goal should be to arrive at USPS before the first truck leaves. As [USER=79705]@mirana[/USER] has pointed out, most carriers know the value of their job, with one of the largest unions protecting them but guess what when it comes to a carrier & theft there is nothing that can be done to save the job & they are prosecuted as a federal crime they know that going into the USPS, before they make what is called permanent. Packages are lost, & agree once a claim is filed it seems it appears I have had happen mailing jewelry to our DIL via our sons APO BOX. If things were left in place it would expedite things within in a timely fashion. Just know most carriers just want to do their job without slack from upper management.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
