How often does the United States Postal Service lose a package? Does anyone have any statistics on how many packages (or letters) the United States Postal Service looses (i.e. does not deliver)? Three weeks ago I returned a book to an Amazon Marketplace seller via Media Mail. They claim to have not received it. According to usps.com the book should have arrived within 4-6 days. So either the seller is lying about not receiving the return (or lost it somehow) or USPS never delivered it. I am positive the address was correct and the proper postage was affixed to the package. My assumption is the percentage of lost packages is very low (< 1%), but I have nothing to backup this theory.

I may work for the United States Postal Service.? I am thinking about working for the US POSTAL service. I called the toll free number. They advised me that there are positions available. However, I am apprehensive because they asked me for $100 deposit to sign up for a test, and than they will arrange for an interview. The starting wage is $20 per hour, and I consider that a good living because I'm in an unstable sales job.

Have you heard this about the United States Postal Service? They may go from 6 day delivery to 5 day delivery. When I first saw this I was thinking Saturday delivery may be cut, but they are talking about Tuesday, since it is the slowest day for delivery. They say that not much mail is sent out on Saturday or Sunday, so Tuesday may be the chosen day. I heard on the news tonight that this may be a possibility, as the post office is suffering financially. Alex B. I totally agree with you on ways the Government and businesses can cut costs. If I go to any country outside the USA, I expect to be able to speak their language, read their language or not go at all. It gets to me that everything has to be in Spanish, even the phone systems, where you have to dial 1 or say the number 1 to hear English. Joe J this means you will get more junk mail the next day. Joanie, I would miss my 6 day a week mail service. When there is no Monday or holiday delivery, the week seems extra long for me. I look forward to catalogs, (which we are getting fewer) due to the internet. I hate shopping on the internet. I like to thumb through look at all my choices so I can mark and select the item(s) I would like to purchase. Mindbird, it is amazing how much mail goes through the system for the price we pay for services.
