Model A Parts Mailed?
This is not funny & really sad.
Just in case anybody did not receive their Model A parts in the mail recently, they may want to look at these photos and also read today's news article: "Postal worker under investigation after thousands of letters found in woods." Is that a manifold gasket in an envelope next to that ash tree? Some time ago another postal worker was reported dumping over half of his mail in an apartment dumpster. |

Every profession has unethical employees. The post office is no exception! Better to be a mail carrier than a doctor, a nurse or a policeman. Wayne

Hi Chris,
Do an internet search on news article title: "Postal worker under investigation after thousands of letters found in woods." Several photos with article. |

Re: Model A Parts Mailed?
Hope they didn't or will fire this Federal worker, they will only go to work for VA and then I'm screwed even more..

Re: Model A Parts Mailed?
What's the difference between substandard USPS delivery and substandard proper care at VA. Both are federal institutions providing a service to the public? I absolutely refuse to be treated anymore in my local VA hospital.
That was not a blanket statement.....I'm sure many get expert USPS service and many get expert VA treatment.

Re: Model A Parts Mailed?
Unless, I drove my Model A to the VA today for an appointment, I got better service from my Model A getting there and returning than I did inside VA for myself. It was a wasted trip in my Model A.

Re: Model A Parts Mailed?
Almost all of them are contract workers, career employees don't care and will deliver the mail and collect the OT if it takes too long. Contract employees want to get done and go to another job.

Re: Model A Parts Mailed?
A postal employee once told me that others were not properly delivering mail, and hiding junk mail. We reported it, and the postal authorities REALLY want to know about this stuff. Report it if you really know something, don't just complain on this forum about things you have "heard" or "read" somewhere else Mr. Chauvin. If you or anyone else have a real honest problem or proof, send it in. Seems to me from what you post that the postal authorities are making the appropriate investigation. Hope you got your manifold gasket.

I'm still mad about the postal worker, and my neighbor for doing the wrong thing. The postal driver put my mint taillight in my neighbor's mail box instead of mine. Then my neighbor put it back in the box instead of walking 50 feet to give it to me. Two stupid moves, and the taillight was never heard from again. It probably was sent to Atlanta for the lost mail auction where the PO can make more money. |

Re: Model A Parts Mailed?
Henry with all due respect, are we really all that concerned over the loss of junk mail or an odd gasket? Let's concentrate our efforts on the sick, starving, homeless and the underprivileged. Junk mail is not a priority in my life. Wayne
