These shipments do not indicate UPS in the loop.Midway "free" shipping tends to use the USPS/UPS "service", I forget what it is called nowadays. UPS picks up and ships the USPS bundles going to certain POs and DCs. Once there, it takes time for the bundles to be unpacked and sorted by USPS union employees.
While the majority of USPS employees are decent people and efficient workers, there are some that are a waste of oxygen and wouldn't have a job were it not for the union. I've known postal workers that have described the system and it is less fair to good workers and more fair to bad workers if that makes sense...
Whatever the reason, the Greenville Distribution Center continues to be a place where efficiency goes to die.
Being all of the mail going to and from Seneca has to pass through the G-ville DC, they have to have at least 1-2 trucks per day running between here and there. So why are packages sitting at the DC for multiple days?
