This past weekend I ordered two products. Both are shipped via the USPS. I ordered one the day after the other.
Product A's tracking:
 | Delivered, March 25, 2010, 1:24 pm, WAVERLY, IA 50677 |
| Sorting Complete, March 25, 2010, 8:12 am, WAVERLY, IA 50677 |
| Arrival at Post Office, March 25, 2010, 6:47 am, WAVERLY, IA 50677 |
| Processed through Sort Facility, March 23, 2010, 11:23 pm, DES MOINES, IA 50395 |
| Processed through Sort Facility, March 22, 2010, 6:57 pm, SAN BERNARDINO, CA 92403 |
| Electronic Shipping Info Received, March 22, 2010 |
Now it seems to me that product b should arrive the day after product a considering both are coming from California.
Product B's tracking:
| Processed through Sort Facility, March 27, 2010, 12:18 am, CHICAGO, IL 60701 |
| Processed through Sort Facility, March 26, 2010, 12:51 pm, ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL 60007 |
| Processed through Sort Facility, March 23, 2010, 6:58 pm, LONG BEACH, CA 90809 |
| Electronic Shipping Info Received, March 23, 2010 |
Both are labeled as first class mail. So why is product B taking so long? This is how efficient government is at providing services. Remember that when it comes to social security, and health care.
