      I swear our Amazon deliver rate is down to 50%. A huge portion of what we order gets delivered to other people and Amazon will do absolutely nothing to change the predictable problems. They keep opting to use a service provider (USPS) that they know doesn't know where our house is.

      And half the time "out for delivery" never arrives. My package that was "out for delivery" at 8am today is now "expected in a few days". What?

      Quality of delivery for Amazon, at least for me, has plummeted in the last two years.

        Just suss'd out sharing Onedrive folders with users outside the org.
        Documented in my own words so it makes sense to me.
        These things get changed so often, it's much better now than it was 2 years ago.

          USPS is a hot mess. They are sooooo slow. Since COVID we've seen packages travel back and forth between the same 2 cities 3-4 times. It's so ridiculous.

          We have an Amazon distribution center locally, and they've switched almost entirely to their own couriers, which have been awesome. Before COVID we were getting like 95% of things next day, now we're slowly getting back to 2-day deliveries, but it's usually still more like 4.

            USPS is a hot mess. They are sooooo slow.

            Based on many of anecdotal stories I have heard over the past 20 years from many different individuals I know in multiple areas of the USPS, certain workers make sure it stays slow. Power of a Union!

            Father-in-law was threaten to stop working so hard and friend was told not to return from their route until specific time or face the consequences. Those are just a couple stories from over the years. If a few people in the office don't want to work, they will make it so you don't either.

              We are in Dallas and Amazon uses USPS constantly, even after we report every few days that our stuff hasn't been delivered. They do nothing to fix their broken processes.

                Ours here has had so many letters between my family in NY and here never arrive that there is an FBI case about it.

                  My goodness. That is BS. Time to raid the Postal inspectors home.

                  When your letters are mailed, are the addresses typed or handwritten? USPS still likes to blame handwriting as the cause for delays.

                      Often business checks and stuff. We used to take photos of letters for the FBI. So bad.

                        It's true. But I think that I also track and don't put up with problems like many people do.

                          I forgot to take my meds last night and now my left arm/hand are overhyped/super sensitive. Wearing a shirt is like a billion ants crawling and biting on me. Ugh. Time for some tramadol.

                            Just tested the file transfer rate to get the results of swapping about 75% of my file shares to NFS from SMB without changing any other hardware and it's gone from 119MB/s to 249MB/s. Big jump. 😄
