Whatever happened to ""Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds."

What's next from this government?
This is a problem all over the USA. Thank you COVID.

But, it doesn't end at the Post Office. Think of all the restaurants that have either had to cut back their hours or close certain days of the week because of the COVID crisis.

Service is no longer in the vocabulary any longer.

None of this makes any sense, but it is what it is! It's the new normal.
