I boycotted UPS today
I went to that building with an Eagle logo on it, patiently stood in line and send my latest eBay sell via flat-rate, First Mail, 2-day delivery.

Feels good.

4. That's the first step...
...next time, though, try going to usps.com first and print out the label online. You get a small discount, and you don't have to stand in line. You pay online and print out the shipping label, slap it on the box you are shipping, and then just drop it off at the post office. No standing in line. It's great, I do it all the time -- love it! The more people who are waiting in line when you go in, the better it feels! :-)

5. USPS is outstanding
When people ask me if I want health care run like the Post Office, I say "yes!" - and I work in the health care biz.

Plus, the USPS doesn't pay punks to spread hate and lies on the radio!

8. F##k UPS.....
I mean brown uniforms? Seriously I would much prefer those blue usps uniforms. UPS is far to efficient. I would rather "go postal" any day.
