GusVsUSPS - Rooster Teeth Animated Adventures 

Gus needs to start his own postal delivery service called GUSPS

Pfff that's nothing. I had a package delivered to a house 3 states away. While living in an apartment

Had a package last year that was apparently shipped to the United Kingdom instead of Florida...just how?

I love a mad Gus

He's so right, I frequently get those messages saying "Sorry we missed you pick up your package at the post office after 4pm" and I literally watched the guy pull up in my driveway, get out of his car, put the message in my mailbox and leave they don't even try to deliver my package it's unbelievable I'm gonna start running out there and screaming at them I've literally had it with them.

The markup on those million dollars they're shipping must be incredible!

I just got an email from amazon letting me know that the package I ordered had been returned to the seller because it had been “damaged” and then I get another email saying they delivered it to the wrong Delivery center. A few weeks ago I got my college diploma in the mail, in an envelope that says “do not bend”. They folded it in half to stuff it in our mail box. Back in December I ordered a poster and they managed to fold that one too. THEY FOLDED THE TUBE THE POSTER CAME IN. WHY?

My box said fragile on it and when I got my package it looked like it had been in a cage match with Dave Batista. My Daft punk helmet broke too. Submitted a claim yesterday and haven't heard a thing back.

To be or not to be WHERE IS MY F**KING PACKAGE!?

As a USPS boi myself, I'm sorry Gus! A lot of us truly care about the mail and getting it to you safe and sound!

I've had similar problems with UPS. The most frustrating thing to me is they like tap the door once and then immediately run away. So even if it gets to the right place there is a good chance it will just sit outside all day.

The reason the USPS doesn't make money is because congress forces them to pre-fund 75 years worth of pensions. No other agency or organization is expected to do that.

Adding this to the things that hit different in 2020

Sounds like your local one is terrible, theft or idiocy.

Gus "They lost their own paychecks!" 🤣

Idk why but this RTA look really well for some reason, maybe it's because of the fact that Gus was moving a lot in this one?

Luckily I haven't had issues with the Royal Mail... But ARGOS!! ARGOS!! amount of times they deliver it next door just because they can't be arsed to walk a few steps further from their van.

0:58 I love the calender in the background

Attention to detail is AWESOME! The calendar was actually for 4 days later and the guy was sitting on Gus’s package

Mad Gus is like a Violent Tornado. It's a fantastic and beautiful sight to see, but only if viewed from a distance of 2 miles.

Well this hasn’t aged well.

I have a buddy who started working part time at the post office. The horror stories of incompetence were jaw dropping. I guess there is a clause that if delivering the mail presents a 'danger' to the carrier you don't have to do it. So carriers would look at a little bit of ice in driveways and just keep moving.

Ironically USPS is the only one who doesn't duck things up in my area

The escalation of the guy drawing with markers was amazing

I love videos like this, just Gus explaining how much he hates a service for whatever reason. It's always immensely relatable. :p

I always loved the subtle visual gag of how the arms are connected to the body

You just have incompetent post office employees where you are. I've never once had issues

I know exactly how Gus feels. I got a job a little while ago, so this was my first experience ever really getting packages en-masse since I finally have money to buy things. Half the time it's delivered to the wrong address if the right guy isn't there. I literally have different mail carriers, like 3 different ones all driving the USPS truck on different days, and the one guy is like "Yeah, when it's not me the packages don't really get delivered right." I'm just shaking my head, he literally came back from his route, tracked down where my package was and had the person give it back to me. That guy is awesome, but everyone else? Sometimes I just do not receive things and it gets completely lost never to be seen again. I'm getting sick of it. I don't want to deal with people like that honestly. I completely loath the postal service.

I actually feel his pain, they leave fragile packages in my ditch in front of my house and I opened it, there goes a $200 vase I ordered as a gift. They didn’t even cover it...

Yes. They won’t stop sending me the mail of the previous THREE residents of my apartment after talking to them TWICE about it in a month about it.

I wonder how relevant this is now

I don't think I have ever had a problem with USPS. Other than packages being in rough shape or being shoved into my mailbox without care, I haven't had any problems with any postal service. Yet.

Makes Australia Post sound like perfection.

I always check any important packages if at any point in time they say they've arrived at certain post office centers,I just talk to customer service and have them send another through UPS instead. There's 3 or 4 post office centers that if your package or mail get there, they will never be seen again.

Omg I'm dying. The post master general at the end🤣

In Ireland you awnser the door to get your packages and if you're not there then the postman will call you from your door and ask you where he should leave it

I also had an issue with the USPS around Christmas... My Inner Gus didn't give the best review 😤 Funny thing, this issue involved shirts ordered from Rooster Teeth. Lol.

Boy, this rant is relatable (and hilarious). I've been pretty fortunate in dealing with the PO but my god have friends and family not had the same luck. Lost packages, BS shipping rates (sure, pay as much for s/h as you did to BUY THE THING YOU'RE SHIPPING). "Expedited shipping" getting there the same time as normal mail. Ugh.

Honestly my local post office is pretty awesome. I've never had a package lost with them.

its funny to me, because I have literally never had any problem in any way shape or form with the postal service. Maybe I just got a good branch here? but they are absoplutely punctual, have never misplaced a package, everything is delivered on time... absolutely wonderful.

To be fair, the USPS handles 47% of all the mail in the entire world and is entirely self-funded, it receives no federal funding, along with handling hundreds of millions of packages from UPS and Fedex.

I live in an apartment complex, and there’s a giant mailbox with compartments for each apartment in the nearby 4-5 buildings. On the bottom, there are are significantly larger compartments for packages, which almost anything normally bought will fit in. They wait until the evening to deliver mail, then drop it off at the rental office in a back room. Management HATES this, and has actively stated they do not allow it but that room doesn’t have any means of locking. When confronted about why they don’t actually use the PRE BUILD MAIL STRUCTURES, the local branch just said it added too much time to the delivery schedules.

Good to know that messed up postal services is a world wide phenomenon

I lost it at 'maybe it was in the packages'

Well. They are running out of money now

BACK AGAIN EIGHT MONTHS LATER TO EXPERIENCE SOMEONE ELSES PAIN WITH THE POSTAL SERVICE

In our Country, The packages is personally given, they don't give it unless you personally sign it yourself, troublesome but you 100% know you got it

This is one of my new favorites. This rant is gold

First off, the usps is "supposed" self sufficient, which means it does not operate on taxe money. The two main reasons why the US Postal Service loses billions of dollars yearly is because, 1. Peope are sending less mail than perviously, 2. Because pensions are getting exponentially higher. Now I may be biased, because my father works for the post office, but the USPS employs over 600,000 Americans. Also its way cheaper to ship with usps compared to Amazon or FederalExpress

My local USPS office is great. I've never had any problems with them and I ship through them every time. They are my best friends.

This is my favourite Gus.

Not an issue where I live. I live in Canada. Canadian postal services often make you sign for larger packages as proof they delivered it to the right house. And if you do miss it, they will leave a sticky pad with the package information on it, stuck to your door, and store the package at your local post office so you can pick it up.

This video aged like milk.

Bernie's laugh at 1:04 turned this video from a 10 to 11 for me.

My mom works for the USPS postal service, she actually did a good and gets onto other people.

Gus has made the best case for privatising everything I've seen.

I always here people complain about USPS but I've never had a package say it was delivered when it wasn't. The only problem I ever had was that one time the package arrived at like 10 at night for some reason when it said it would be there in the morning.

Got a buddy in Canada. I live in the states. He Sent me a necklace and the usps delivered it to two different locations. The two recipients were kind enough to mail it back to Canada through other means.

I think this is the best animated episode of RTAA

I love Gus and his animated adventures, who else?

I love that everyone's arms are animated entirely at the sleeve of his shirt

I have yet to have my local post office lose one of my packages. Of course, that might be because the mail lady is my neighbor and I'm on good terms with her.

I love Gus's rants.

I ordered something from amazon in September two years ago so that I could make a Christmas gift. USPS lost it. Fantastic. Ordered another one at the end of October because I really needed it, it wasn’t that expensive, and you can only get it online. That one showed up two weeks before Christmas. The first one eventually showed up the following March, when I had absolutely no need for it. Six months for a box to get from the amazon warehouse to my house. Stellar job by USPS.

I live in the middle of nowhere montana, and I regularly mail and receive packages. Over the last 5 years I've literally never had a problem with USPS

Well from my experience, the USPS of wisconsin is great, never had a complaint. Then again never used USPS in texas

the animation looks really good in this one! y'all are doing great

Ive really never had a problem with USPS and i live in West Suburbs of Chicago. Never lost a package at all. Only damage of a package i had was from a UPS package so if that tells ya anything else...yeah.

Worked for USPS for a short time. DHL is worse on losing packages, but we do toss your packages in the truck and prescan them in when close by

This did not age well

_Gus is everyone that’s ever had to send or receive a package_

The US postal service is still a thing?

sometimes I'll have some package mixups with a neighboring building due to a difference of an 8 or a 3 in address, so I usually go there to see if my "delivered" package was mixed up. Ended up not being mixed up there, but I was sent a "confirmation of delivery" pic that was just a box on a doormat, so I ended up wandering my complex looking for the right doormat and eventually found it, with not only far from the right building number but not even the right house letter.

This didn’t age well lol

Watch John Oliver explain it

USPS is not tax funded. Just want to point that out, because not many people understand that.

This, and Arin Hanson raving about Subway = Same energy

I love the USPS. They always get me my paychecks on time

Here's the thing: many times, you see that a package was delivered but you won't receive it for a few more days. The USPS has a quota they have to meet about how many packages they deliver, so they will say that your package is delivered and cause issues and such because of it.

Ohhh this is not aging well given the election

USPS lost the Impact Props Master Chief armor and didn't help them at all

USPS is real important tho. private delivery companies can upcharge like crazy

The post office is so different depending on location. Being in the midwest everything is automated to make it "cheaper" and "less error prone" to which I get the worst package services ever. Nothing is automated back at my parent's house on the west coast and we always get our packages.

Gus' anger at the USPS reminds me of the time I got burned by my internet provider. Every single day for over a year I'd call them and complain that I'm paying for 25Mbps down but only getting up to 2Mbps. One day I just lost it at them. I'm pretty sure even my neighbours heard me screaming at the poor guy on the other end of that phone call

It's not any better in Canada, especially with theft being so rampant and the police not taking video evidence as proof of something being stolen

Gus does realize the USPS isnt a business doesnt he lmao

I think they're trolling Gus. Also, Congressional mandate to prefund pensions is what's losing them money.

This is like that time in Game Grumps when Arin rants on Subway, but it’s Gus with Postal Service

Gus small town USPS are pretty good. Just use one of those

Same. They deliver it across the street to the wrong appt complex, they deliver it to the appt office 5 minutes before close, they lie to the tracking app, they don't try to deliver it at all and just take it back to their office. There are large package mailboxes at my mailbox, that they don't use. UPS and FedEx, also terrible. Amazon had to start their own delivery company from scratch, just for Amazon purchases.

They lose that much cause they have to operate in areas that are unprofitable like rural Alaska

Why is Gus so freaking amazing! He should be in more let's plays! More game, more gus! Whooooooooo!

And later UPS loses his packages, so maybe Gus is the problem..

At Amazon we actually have customers beg to be assigned anyone *but* USPS. Had a customer that bought a new GPU, which was delivered *in clear plastic* and USPS folded it in half to stuff it in the dude's box.

The US postal service is actually really good in Arizona

This remind me of those "Cable guys" from south park XD

Gus hiding under the mailbox reminded me of when spongebob camped out in squidward's mailbox and scares the poor mailman

Watching this after the post office tried to deliver a package, missed me, took it back to the post office and lost it in the process

So, just discovered that USPS is partnered with GovDeals, which is an online auction where "lost packages" are sold, soley for USPS profit. And by "lost packages," they mean "packages that are deemed valuable, so they 'go missing' or are 'declared dead' and put up for auction, where USPS pockets 100% of the funds." To make matters worse, the MRC (Mail Recovery Center) is where all these "lost item auctions" are held, and you can't take pictures of the building, can't record video outside the building (not even on the public street) and USPS WILL detain you and call the cops if you try to do so.

That was the one of the best animated adventures in a while.
