#MailDelivery

#Musk is going to have First Class Parcel Post (if not all mail) taken over by #Amazon and #JeffBezos

OK: don't know about urban ZIP codes, but in the rural (10K residents) ZIP code I live in, the #USPS is already doing last mile delivery for #AmazonPrime

An Amazon truck drops off Amazon Prime parcels at the PO back door and the parcels are carted inside and sorted into delivery routes carried out by USPS drivers

Big problem is, most USPS drivers will not leave their trucks to deliver to front doors - all Prime parcels are dropped atop the street-side mail box stands

But I don't have street mail delivery so I have to get into my car, drive to the Post Office, park, wait in line to get up to the counter, only to be handed a Prime order that UPS would have dropped on my doormat two days earlier
