I hate them just because if a package gets lost in the mail, you’ll just have to deal with it and plus long shipping as well…

USPS isn’t without faults but really if you pay for standard shipping that’s what you can expect. If you want it fast you have to pay for it.

If you pay for faster shipping and it takes 5 days then you have something to complain about.

Hate is so easy but just a waste of energy!

I’ve had a USPS Priority package take a week before. Only thing tracking said was your package is being processed in the facility or something along those lines. It wasn’t a holiday or anything, just slow service.

However, I usually receive my stuff 2-3 days.

UPS can be annoyying and really awesome at the same time. If they have heavy shipping going on right then. Or something breaks down on one of the vehicles they use to transport packages/items, it could take awhile… 😕
