You make ACE after you've shot down or damaged 20 packages, right.

I'm in Canada and don't have much faith in Canada Post. I'm still waiting for a parcel of important documents that was sent to me in 2007.

I'll take USPS over FedEx and I'll take UPS over the other two anytime. A lot has to do with your location and the service provided, it also depends on your location for work ethics too.....IMO!!!

Here I am back during the Depression ...we lost our trucks and they gave us these three wheelers but the mail always got picked up and delivered.
