Okay, so I have this theory about the way post offices work. I've had to develop this theory because the Waco Postal Service is notoriously bad and slow. So I've given a great deal of thought into how to get a letter to its destination faster. I have no evidence that my theories hold water. If you know something I don't, please chime in.

The post office says that they collect the mail all day from mailboxes and from the blue boxes at set times late in the afternoon. This signals that the mail comes in during the day and out either that evening or the next day. But I got to thinking... mail trucks are always on the road. So mail that comes into the post office must go out as soon as they have a full load. So if I want my letter to go out sooner, I should take it to the post office itself, the larger the better, and put it in the slot inside the building. That mail seems more likely to head out as soon as the bins are full.

So that's what I do. I take every letter that I care about moving quickly into the post office building. What do you think? Any validity? Any other tips for getting mail to move faster?
