This is why I hate shipping...
Keep in mind that this address is only an hour and fifteen minutes from my house.
I could have tied it to a blind senior walking with prostate issues and had it make less stops than this package."The production of to many usefull things results in too many useless people."

USPS has sort facilities like regional facilities and everything goes through them and often times the entries show multiple hits because it goes through different hands at the facilities before it winds up at the destination.
You think that's bad try sending something by registered mail and you'll have pages of receipts and departures and it takes forever.

Sometimes the "bonus stops" are many, other times they are few! As long as it gets there in the end...
Still maddening though!

Thanked: 351It's easy to loose sight of "the many" when waiting for your item to be delivered. The fictitious senior mention earlier, might have been slightly overwhelmed, if presented with the total number of items processed and delivered each and every day by the USPS.
509 million — number of mailpieces processed and delivered each day
