Not an option for a lot of folks.

why not?? do you people not have jobs??? maybe your neighbors hate you.....here's what modern folks are doing about it.

I have lived in chicago for about 15 years and i knew i would be changing apartments frequently (10 places to be exact)....rather than have to suffer like "most folks" and have to deal with constant address changes and lost packages and mail everytime i moved, i got a one mail box at a local mail boxes etc. store near home (it's a chain store) and i never missed a single magazine or package. for a mere $20 a month it was a great investment and saved me alot of grief...especially if you live in a big city......they accept fed ex deliveries daily as well as usps and ups....there is always someone at the store to accept all packages and you even get a key to the place so you can pick up mail (not packages) after hours, any time......I reccommend it to anyone that doesn't want to wonder where their mail is....

but sadly, i know what's coming next after posting this ......

" alot of folks don't have an extra $20 a month to pay for the service..." well- each month, just drink 3 mai tais less than usual when you go out and there's your money!!

all i'm saying is, there are always options, and sometimes those options cost a few bucks but it's better than feeling victimized by a postal service gone out of control....or blaming tiki farm for their choice in services.....it's not their fault.
