Several people have given good answers to this, but did you know that you
can complain *to the post office*, *about the post office*?  There are
official complaint forms that you can get at the post office.  It's a very
simple large-postcard kind of thing.  One copy goes to the local office 
that you are complaining about, and the other goes to the postmaster general
in DC.  I have used these forms twice, with surprisingly good results.  Each
time the problem (which I suspected was due to the local post office) went
away.  Once, my mother got a form letter from the DC office saying, essentially,
"lots of people have complained; we're working on it."
