Title: Brazil's Post Office goes on strike
Description: And it's not April Fools Day

I went to the Post Office during lunch and found the agency closed. On the newspaper it says they will be on strike for undetermined time.

I still have owed books from swaps and VBBs to send, because last month was terrible financially speaking and now that I have money, I'll still have to make you guys wait some more... :wacko:

I hope you please be patient with me, and I'll keep you posted when it comes back to normal.

Thank you so much!

So I should probably just hold onto that book I owe you for a while?

This is craziness! Let us know what's going on...

Yes, please do it. We never know what can happen with the books en route while the strike goes on.

I'll keep you posted.

Oh no! I hope "indefinitely" turns out to be a very short time and you don't lose too much mail.... :(

I would have been glad if I lost any bill because of this strike. But not, all of them have already arrived. :giggle:

:hug: Hope it ends soon and your packages don't vanish enroute. :cry: I'll sit on the one I owe you too. Let us know when it's safe to send again. :pat:

Good news!

The paper says the Government made a deal with the workers and probably the strike will be over tomorrow!!!
