Comment on Remarks by Postmaster General David Steiner at the May 8, 2026, USPS Board of Governors Meeting by Unhappy Customer

Please improve the customer service. In parts of the 16th Congressional District in Texas, there is no customer service. For example, why is not the USPS held accountability for failures and sometimes a refusal to pick up stamped mail from a USPS approved postal box. Instead of speaking to mail delivery staff directly, the Manager of Customer Service Lorenzo Ramirez at the Sanders Street post office in El Paso, Texas, best response, was for the customer to speak to the mailperson, which means that taxpayers must wait all day for the mail staff to show up and then speak to them. This attitude does not deserve funds every year which USPS asks for from Congress due to their own failuires managing the finances

SO, NO ONE EVER ANSWERS THE KNOCK AT THE MOUNT CLEMENS POST OFFICE DOOR. I STAYED ON TELEPHONE HOLD FOR 11 MINUTES WAITING TO SPEAK WITH SOMEONE. I knock at the PO door for 15 minutes straight. No one will answer the door. I can see them at their desks, ignoring my knocks. Are they not supposed to answer to the public they serve? Are they not public servants? Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? You have what to say?

I put out a bag of food next to my box and the mailperson did not pick up my donation on Sat May 9th. The mailperson left me a donation bag earlier in the week but they don’t pick up.

Until USPS addresses the absenteeism, FMLA abuse, and the “I don’t care attitude, just give me my check”, things will never change. Hardly anyone comes to work, and that alone increases the overtime and penalty overtime rates. Until management is allowed to effectively rid the abusers, we will continue to be stuck with people who don’t give a damn. Get some security cameras inside the stations and see what’s really going on.

Today, March 9, 2026 was the Letters Carriers Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive.
I placed three bags of food items near the mailbox.
Mailed was delivered but no food pickup.

Service continues to improve? Where? It seems that every day another congressman sends Steiner a letter complaining about poor service. Congress’ phone is constantly ringing with complaints and subcommittee members peppered Steiner with personal stories of personal mail that either didn’t arrive or was terribly late. On balance, the mail isn’t safe or reliable and Steiner himself has hinted so. Radicals in labor continue to hire unqualified people of questionable character. The inspection service simply can’t keep up with instances of internal theft. Steiner’s tenure thus far can be characterized as raise rates and diminished service.

It looks like Steiner’s sssertion that “we must grow” meant largely growing rate increases, because volume continues to on balance decrease. Those folks at The NationalPostal Forum probably have no clue about how high rates are going to rise. One thing is for certain, there’s no way that the USPS is going to pay a dime back. Until Steiner right sizes the place and eliminates at least 30% of the useless EAS jobs that aren’t necessary, he shouldn’t get a dime.
