Having too much fun with USPS online applications
Ooh, burn! The Post Office claims overnight Express Mail service to “most areas”. I could understand it not being available from small town to small town, but not between two major U.S. city ZIP Codes, 99775 and 96815! They’re even both in the high 90,000s! Sure, you can drop off your package at the origin until 7:00 p.m., but it won’t end up at the destination until 10:00 a.m., two whole days later!
Actually, that’s really frakking amazing, when you look it up. Wow.
(What, the government-kinda? Really, they can do that? I’ll let you in on a little GAO secret: the USPS’s biggest contractor is FedEx. No kidding. FedEx planes fly Express Mail.)
