I've experienced twice, most recently 4/9/24 and earlier this year, USPS failure to do the job they're paid to do, deliver my mail in a secure manner. The first time, usps informed me (sms) that a pkg was delivered to my door. I was watching for the delivery as the postal person said they had no pkg for me. USPS denied my claim 3 times, insisting "it was delivered." Again, a pkg remained for local delivery from 4/9/24, "In transit to next facility, arriving late". USPS has thieves within their operations!

All they have to do, is see which postal employee has the shinny new cars, and big scream TVs.

Please investigate the one at 4020 Broadway in SE Houston. We kept a PO box there for awhile, then found someone else's medicine in our box along with a notice that they were holding packages for us. We turned in the medicine to the female at the counter, who took it, but was unable to find our packages. Someone else who kept a box there sent relatives in Mexico a computer that never got there. Another person renting a box there said the medicine she got thru the mail was stolen more than once. Also witnessed an older lady being told she'd have to wait until one of the employees got back from break if she wanted service. They don't open on time either, often because they're too busy socializing with each other, so if you need to go to that one be prepared to wait...and wait...and wait... Another time I went to pick up my packages, the girl behind the counter brought them, slammed them on the counter, broke one item in the process. I do crafts & order most supplies online so I did have a lot of packages that day, something she clearly resented when she said "it must be nice" as I took them off the counter. OK - none of those things were from Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny. I paid for each item from wages I earned from working. Even if they had been gifts or whatever, it's nothing to do with any postal worker, most of whom make more money than I do anyway. There really are people who feel entitled to everyone else's stuff, regardless of the fact that it doesn't belong to them, will cause hardship to whoever it's stolen from, or that other people have needs too. Infants feel entitled to be the center of the world when they're hungry or soiled, but most people outgrow this. Not those employed (can't say working) at this location.

Let's be careful here, as the USPS has a VERY DIVERSE workforce.

Of course, it happens. I had an excoworker many years ago who went to work for the postal office, and she told me employees would open letters looking for credit cards, but she claimed she didn't.

Reminds me of the Eric Andre skit of him opening mail. Random guy: "Is that someone's birthday card?" Eric: "YEAH 5 dollars for me"

I sent two packages to my son in Florida from indiana for Christmas and one had a hole in it so they could see what was in it. They actually put a couple pieces of candy in it. My son was wondering why I did that I didn’t

15% to the big guy.

Our Christmas gifts and gift cards did not make it to us. The tracking numbers showed as being in transit and never left the Houston post office. The wife filed a complaint and 3 weeks later we received an envelope with the original envelope in it ripped open and someone else's gift card in it. Will never return to Texas

I had this happen a local post office in Beaumont, Ca about 4 years ago. A lot of mail stolen. The post office was very unhelpful. It appeared to be an inside job.

So sad that had happened to her

The postal union is just too strong to be able to terminate employees.

Take a look at the main office in Humble. I have gone in person to collect mail with the slip left by driver and turned away. Saw employees refuse to even look up the system to see if items were there; just blatantly turned them away. If I receive any package in USPS, the carrier takes several days after the confirmed date to put them in the box and/or never puts them in despite showing delivered by informed delivery.

Thievery has become socially acceptable, so call social media has made it so. People bragging on social media about their stolen merchandise. Resale sites have made it easy to profit from stolen goods. There was a time a thieve has 3 choices to sell stolen goods, an individual, a pawn shop or a middle man which could be a police operation. Today just put it on line, wait for a buyer.

South Florida miss you Kevin

Same thing happened to 2 of my packages. Mailed at post Office and no more scans. Mailed Apr. 9. My friend has 5 missing from the same day.

I have a package that disappeared while in transit from CA. They are claiming that there is a backlog of mail that they are working through but I am pretty sure that it was either thrown away because they didn't want to deliver it or it was stolen.

Yes, this happens and something needs to be done about it

Check all carrier agents first Check office agents Check all distribution center And most of all check all cameras in the facility The crook will be caught

Yes. I reported to OIG in 2020 when my mail went missing. It's happening nationwide!

Tears in our beloved post office .Any more cameras to protect our mail The post office need to pay for every cent..

A freind of mine sent a card with a 20 init during xmas going to his paper boy for a tip just recently he got it card letter and 20 back with a note from usps he should send cash in mail ...anit this a illegal opening of his mail by post office?he has never had a probelm before this happened up in michigan....

I find this amazing because I can't even get change at a bank without getting the 3rd degree 🤔🤔🤔🤔

The postal service is full of employees with sticky fingers.

Oh wow, my dad would always tell me that he thinks the mail people open his mail and I would tell him that I didn't think so. I thought he was paranoid. Smh

It’s not just Houston, been going on for years-we quit sending money or checks in cards, photo cd disks, anything of value years ago because anything of value would mysteriously disappear, would be “damaged”, or “got caught in the machines”. I once lost a signed sports photo between Phillie and NY my dad sent to me. Priority or overnight is just as bad-just disappears.

They have too many affirmative action and DEI hire.

Amen I never got a response about my certified letter

So even when you certify mail its still stolen. Wow!

It is good to see these issues brought forward, thank you for reporting them. Just a reminder to all of you out there - NOT All USPS Employees are Bad, thank you. As for government employees- they are not all bad either. Some of us work very hard everyday to keep the mail moving for Americans.

How do you think cartels gets data ! 📊 😮

These people are going to end up being replaced by AI because of this sort of thing. Really sad. USPS employs thousands of carriers and only a small fraction of them are doing this. I really hope they catch them and really make a huge example out of them.

Same thing is happening in Philadelphia but it’s people in the Mail boxes

Certified mail is not completely trackable. It just confirms acceptance and delivery. Nothing is in between, meaning the theft could have happened somewhere else!

Yes, yes it is

Doing a background check on employees probably wouldn't help either. If they see something they want,they gonna take it regardless.Ppl these days are getting ruthless.😔😔😠

This type of behavior has been going on since the 90's, that I can recall I became a would be victim, It was time for my license renewal to be mailed to me, per DPS they kept telling me it was mailed 3 weeks before my birthday, I requested another copy that I could come and pickup, About two weeks later I received a phone call from a PAWN SHOP telling me my payroll check was returned, I started asking them so many questions, because first and foremost I get direct deposit and the Company they told me was not the company I worked for, I finally told the guy you got scammed not me.

Box at the same post offc and when is go check the box the mail would still be open inside the PO Box So definitely an inside job Also

Yea the USPS is a disaster of an organization! Since September 2023 I have had nearly 5 packages severely damaged after being delivered to me through the USPS resulting in them having to be exchanged with the merchant costing me thousands of $$$! As of today the USPS has yet to respond with adequate sufficiency with regard to the whereabouts of another package of mine that they lost enroute to the merchant I was sending it too after horrific damage upon USPS delivery to me. I've submitted service request, MRC requests, & my package was insured; yet still to this very day 04/27/2024 they have no answer about the whereabouts of my package!

As a former USPS employee oftentimes the automated machine will tear up mail or rip it if it’s a jam/malfunction. It’s up to employees to pick up mail and send it to the appropriate department that handles damaged mail. Employees are so overwhelmed by work, poor management, lazy staff and corruption to where it’s easy to turn a blind eye.

Why I either make calls to pay bills or use money orders

How come the government of United States of America is not getting into this they really should because I’ve known them to get into other situations and close companies down. Why can’t they close this company down? They really need to if they can’t do it right can’t hire employees to do it right then they need to close it down.
