    USPS employees stealing packages

    I ordered like a large amount of cialis from a legitimate pharmacy in FL. Check the USPS tracking, says it's delivered. Go check my mailbox, nothing.

    I search online and see an article about USPS firing some 400+ employees at some point because they were stealing medication shipments. I figure the same thing happened now, unless they put it in the wrong mailbox. From what I can tell, there's pretty much nothing I can do at this point. USPS has 0 customer service. Can't get a human for the life of me. How convenient. Steal my shit, mark it as shipped, good night.

    There are people undercover in plain clothes and other people peeping out holes out of walls called Postal Police that just watch postal employees. They take things like stealing letters and even 3rd class mail like flyers for serious.... i know this cos i was in a post office paid training program.

    and postal employees know about this, so hopefully that's enough of a detterence and ur mail was just lost and if you file a claim they will research its whereabouts. I know this from my selling experience on ebay, 2 items were lost during last year's busy Christmas season. They found 1 item and mailed it to me.

    It's just weird that when I filed the claim online and it asked me what type of item it was, medication was not listed as an option. I can select electronics, clothing, etc.

    You did the right thing. I have a whole lots of supp's vitamins etc., that are like $240 net profit, I am going to wait till January 2, 2022.
    They are so busy, they don't have the time to cross their i's and t's they will be just super sorry it was misdirected after they find it for you...because they have an organizational gov't agency "Ego"

    I'm not selling anything and risking a Dent in my 100 % Top Rated Seller Ebay Status, because of this.... plus, i'd like to burn lots of bodyfat, and that needs a blitz effort. I'm cutting this fall / winter.

    Have had this happen once before, and they "lost" 3 packages this year. Fortunately, since tracking never showed it being delivered, the shipper replaced it and sent it via FedEx ( I despise FedEx) or UPS.

    I'm on pretty good terms with my USPS carrier and her family. I'm almost certain the packages were "lost" at a hub along the way.

    In your case, if it tracked from the local PO to your house, it probably went to an incorrect addy OR someone cleaned out your home mailbox for you ( this happens more than people realize).

    Edit: It may be because I'm rural, but I get much better responses from my local Postmaster vs. online USPS.

    I live in a townhouse so our mailboxes are all in one place and we need a key for each one. My finasteride and viagra came just fine and were in the mailbox when I went to get the cialis. The tracking said "delivered to Pittsburgh, PA." I don't usually track USPS packages, but that seems pretty vague to me.

    What I'm even more pissed about is that when I called the pharmacy, I got one of those spam bots where it says crap like "press one if you are over 50 and are interested in x, press 2 if you would like info on auto insurance..." I immediately thought this must have been a scam since the phone number was bogus and my stuff didn't come in and the tracking is bs. So I called my bank and cancelled my card immediately and filed a claim. I call the same number the next day and it rings a couple of times and hangs up on me. I send them an email at this point thinking it's in vain anyhow, but surprisingly get a response that seemed very generic about how they're sorry and they'll send the package again. Then nothing for 2 days. I call today and someone actually answers, apparently they are legitimate and they already shipped the second order, through Fedex this time... I hate Fedex, too. Last time they put the package in the middle of my driveway by the garage door so I ran over it when I left my house. Luckily it was a little headphone connector for my iPad and it didn't get messed up. I thought, wow, these guys must be morons. They even took a picture of where they put it for the tracking... lol. That sucks USPS lost 3 of your packages. I would be so pissed. I'm thinking some guy right now has a huge stash of cialis, or maybe my neighbor has it. I ordered enough for a few years.

    Yeah, that USPS tracking is screwy. Now I'm thinking it never made it into your carrier's hands? I live in the middle of nowhere and typically/ when things are done properly, my tracking will show the hub closest to the nearest large airport, then to the closest average size town, then it even shows up at the closest Post Office in a town w/ a population of 281 +/-.

    Glad to hear you're getting replacement meds!

    I saw the mailman outside today from my deck/balcony. I’m the end unit in a row of townhouses and closest to the mailboxes. The mailman opens the main panel which exposes all the mailboxes and starts sorting he mail. I’m watching him, waiting to say something once he’s done. Here comes this guy and is like hey can I get my mail, and the mailman just lets him reach in and grab the mail… didn’t seem like they knew each other. That guy could have grabbed anyone else’s mail. I thought that was pretty unprofessional.

    I called out to the mailman once he was done. He said he was on vacation when the mail was delivered last week. I asked him when do packages get scanned to confirm delivery for tracking and he said they do it before they put the mail in the mailbox. He said they can track who delivered the mail, but unfortunately I couldn’t get a hold of anyone at the post office. I’ll have to drive down there and talk to someone in person.

    The pharmacy did deliver my pills by fedex. Was in my garage and took the delivery myself.

    This is kind where I'm at rn - I trust just about any other carrier more than USPS at this point - FedEx, Amazon itself, etc. < Never thought I'd see this day either. . . . USPS was brick & mortar for my previous business - now, I have no clue what in the F is going on. . . . To make it stranger, my wife's sister just got a job as a rural carrier - The shit they say to her & make her do is just a joke - she's running a route in her own car into dark of the nite < this a barely 30 year old female who just started delivering mail not even a month ago - you treat me like this, I'll just go through some packages for "bonus" pay - Or, just throw that crap in the dumpster & go home when it's dark

    Happens all the time. I read a while back about a USPS guy who they found 100s of credit cards stashed in his work desk and Ive seen videos of mail carries dumping mail in the dumpsters because they didnt want to deliver them. Tell me again how vote by mail is safe especially since most the envelopes have a D or R on the back of them for identification.
