Post office delivery of parcel slow
A letter recounts a slow parcel to Norman Oklahoma from Baytown, noting a 450 mile distance, a 7 to 9 day delivery window, and a later pickup notice. The writer laments the delay while defending the Post Office's usual service levels and humorously traces the six day mailing and eventual overdue parcel return.
