Dear USPS,

I appreciate the fact that i can mail a letter from one side of the country to the other for a few measley cents, and I can mail an entire package and have it get there tomorrow for a few dollars... Clearly, you are good at that. It's the technology thing that seems to have you befuddled.

I moved in mid september and a few days before i moved, I went to the official USPS website and put in a change of address and life was supposed to be good. I even got a confirmation letter at my new address to show that I had an official address... That's not hard is it? You know where I live now...

So, why, after 1 1/2 months at my new residence.... Have I gotten exactly ONE piece of mail forwarded to me. You got it right once... what about everything else? Now, bills I don't care some much about, I'm responsiblish, I pay those on line... What i do care about is those 6 outstanding expense checks that are somewhere in limbo...

After leaving me on hold for 30 minutes this morning, while I made call number 6 to rectify this problem, you decided that since I did the change of address on line, the local post office wasn't notified of said change, and my mail was still being delivered to my old address. But have no fear, Ms Maleficent, the carrier will bring back any mail at your old address and we'll forward that. OK , Mr Post Office, the mail went into the front door (of which the key i turned in when I moved) of my old apartment so basically your're telling me I'm screwed.

Thanks for calling the USPS...
