The COVID-19 Diary: Wednesday 03 August

My mail is screwed up. When I was staying in NC I submitted a temporary change of address so I could get mail there. When I got home I submitted another one effective 8 July. I haven’t received any mail since then. I went to my post office yesterday to try to get it straightened out. They said someone would call me, but no one did. I put in a service request on the USPS web site today. I’m supposed to hear back in 1-3 business days. Meantime I’ve had some package deliveries get returned to sender. I’m also hoping that the loan papers for the car don’t get lost.

Whenever someone complains about government bureaucracy and incompetence I’m quick to point out that plenty of private sector organizations are just as bad; but that doesn’t mean that government bureaucracy and incompetence doesn’t exist.

Stay healthy and safe.
