Seriously, USPS? WTF.

So I ordered something online last week (May 4). It's shipping *inside* the US. As it turns out, the item is in Athens, OH. Estimated arrival date: May 25.

TWENTY ONE DAYS for something to get from Athens to here? The only way it should take that long is if someone is *walking* it to me.

So I check in this morning. The shipment went to the carrier yesterday. Check this:

May 8, 2012 08:02:00 AM Athens OH US Out for delivery
May 8, 2012 07:36:00 AM Athens OH US Arrival Scan
May 7, 2012 07:12:00 PM Athens OH US Departure Scan
May 7, 2012 05:42:00 PM Athens OH US Shipment received by carrier

Apparently my package is out for delivery in Athens OH. That's GREAT, except for the part where I don't live in Athens or anywhere near it.
