USPS: Designed to be hated.
I ordered contact lens refills last Saturday and was notified they'd be shipped to arrive by this past Wednesday.
Then I got a delay notice and when I stuck the tracking number into USPS it showed the lens order was placed in Champlain NY
then sent to their Albany NY processing center
then Springfield MA
then Fairburn GA
then locally to Gastonia NC.
Arriving today, they say, but only because it's apparently out for delivery.
