RANT: Woodinville's Horrible Mail Service

Does anybody else who lives in Woodinville get the kind of pathetic mail service I get here, in 98077? Mail regularly comes after 4 PM! The record for late delivery was sometime around last Christmas, when the mail arrived very close to 9 at night! Our family has one car, so I frequently have no choice but to use the online pick-up request service. Last night I scheduled a pick-up for 12 outgoing packages, including 5 Priority Mail packages (key word there being Priority)... well, it's 6:10, and the mailman JUST pulled up! Pretty bad, considering the Priorities, but this has happened several times with Express Mail (overnight) packages. I really love paying $30-$45 for an overnight package that ends up taking the same amount of time as $5 Priority Mail should (2 days), all because my mailman moves about as fast as molasses. It's driving me nuts!!! Argh!
