Usps World Tour
On November 14th I made two purchases for friends. They were ready for shipping on 16th. One (I got a message) will arrive today. Two weeks are normal for being sent from California to Germany.
And the other one?
USPS seems to have sent it on a world tour. Since 22nd (!) it is in Canada, may be a kind of sightseeing. What is next? Brazil?
I remember a former experience. From my Indian Summer trip many years ago I sent a postcard to a colleague. She got it after nearly half a year with a stamp 'sorted out by the Ecuador Postal Service'.
It seems some people do not know any foreign countries at USPS. May be someone gives them a list of countries and where they are.
Or does USPS have a second business unit as travel agency?
