TJ's ballot finally arrived tonight about 9:15 tonight

This had been our only mail delivery other than Amazon parcels this week. The ballot was postmarked 9/17! I spoke briefly with the carrier and he is working ~14 hour days. He implied that others were burnt out and no longer working lots of double shifts.

He also mentioned that there was a group of new hires in orientation.

DeJoy was trying to put the nail in the coffin.

... until 2020. And I've lived in rural Nebraska, Chicago, Austin and now in rural MFalls

I've been pleased with it, never late, inexpensive, good counter service. I lost three packages I consider my fault. My wife in spite of what I asked, sent three packages of multiple pairs of socks in padded envelopes - I knew the machinery would eat them and it did. Never got them back, and my customers never got them, either.

Hows your health doing? Haven't run into for quite a spell.

Doing real good myself and staying healthy.

Our carrier retired with lots of notice and six months later his position was still not posted, at least that was what a substitute carrier who wanted the route said.

I sent you a PM about health, I'm not very open about such things.
