Yesterday I gave my regular USPS carrier 43 outgoing parcels. He's my regular carrier and he's been on my route for the past sixth months...I've never had a problem with him before. He's always been very friendly and I always take my boxes out to his van so he doesn't have to pick them up from the house.
Fast forward to today. When I checked on the tracking numbers for yesterday's shipments, I found that none of the 43 packages were scanned in as received by the carrier...so, I drove to the post office and talked to my carrier's supervisor. She said that my carrier wasn't working today so she couldn't ask him what happened to the packages, but she did say that she remembers him bringing them into the building after his route was done late yesterday afternoon.
The supervisor said that it could be that the carrier's scanner wasn't working correctly...but there hasn't been a single update to any of the 43 tracking numbers. Typically they get scanned by the carrier, then again by the post office, and again when they get to the local sorting facility. All three of those scans usually happen the same day I ship a package...but none of them have happened with any of these missing boxes.
I'm at a loss here. I'm not sure what to do. I don't want to blame my carrier, but it's his responsibility to scan the packages in as received and that wasn't done for any of the 43 boxes, which makes me very suspicious that he didn't scan any of them on purpose. I really don't know what to do in this situation.
