USPS delays

Just going to point out that it's currently peak season for the USPS. Everyone and two of their brothers are shipping or having something shipped this time of year.
Our post office was out of money orders for over a month. We only have one full time postal worker as the town is population 600. I just don't think she wanted to deal with them anymore. Several town members filed complaints online and we finally got money orders again.
Also, money orders are the same as cash. You don't just decide not to sell them because it's a PIA. They're accountable. Honestly, they're not that tough to deal with. Easier than processing a certified letter. A clerk in a post office didn't delay them. That came from a lot higher above them. Of course, you only see the clerk, so it must their fault.
