Been missent twice. My local post office spoke with someone at the missent location, and they had the package in their hand and stated the shipper has the right address, but the post office is coding it wrong and hence being missent. They corrected the error, but the package still went back to Elk Grove Vllage and is still being processed. Hoping for a miracle that the package will be here tomorrow!

DHL did not last long here in Kansas City as within its first year it had so many missorts and a shit staff they had no choice but to shut it down they were losing so much money. And UPS so far has been the best shipping company I have worked for in terms of service quality. While UPS is union, they still are very strict about packages getting missorted. And people do get fired over missorting packages. However, FedEx smartpost seems to not care at all. Where I work, most of our staff is all hired from FOB from africa or asia and dont speak a lick of english, so they have no clue whats going on. I see mislabled packages daily by the hundreds, and I do my best to catch them before they continue and get them fixed. However, I cant catch em all. But I bet thats what happened. It seems to happen daily at FedEx so I imagine it does at the post office too. Bad lables but no one cares to fix the problem and it just circles the system. We have had packages just circle within our hub for days with no label cuz people are too lazy or dont know what they are doing. If I was the CEO of one of these companies, alot of people would be out of the job over stuff like this. When something is missorted 3 or 4 times, its not a mistake, its the company failing to hire an educated workforce.
