Assholes get mail too
06.24.05 (10:21 am)   [edit]
"Neither rain, nor sleet, nor gloom of night will keep me from my appointed rounds."
- The Postman's Motto

Yeah, right. Apparently the postman's motto goes out the window if there's a garbage container, car or some other obstruction parked in front of the mailbox that would require the postman to dismount from his carrier and actually step up to your mailbox. Apparently, it's in the rules or their union contract or whatever. If the mailman can't open his window and reach over and drop the mail into the mailbox from the comfort of his mailvan, you don't get mail. All those USPS ads showing the mailmen in their cute little shorts fighting pesky dogs are apparently dreams in certain neighborhoods. My neighbors in my apartment complex have been inconsiderate jerks for the past 4 days and have parked infront of the mailboxes on each day at exactly the time when the mail gets delivered. So what does that mean? NO MAIL. I'm expecting an important package and my brother is expecting his winnings from eBay, so you can imagine how annoying it is when you go out to check the mailbox and there isn't even the usual annoying junk mail offering you 3.9% APR or some discount at Dominoes. Nothing for 4 days!! I'm also job hunting and usually places send you Dear Johns by mail. It would be nice to eliminate those people who aren't interested so I can follow up with those who have not responded. I can't do that without mail delivery. Don't they want their mail delivered too? Well if it's all credit card bills then...


So I called USPS and the lovely lady forwarded my concerns to the local post office who promptly called me this morning and informed me of the problem. The mailman has been going above and beyond the call of duty and dismounting his carrier to deliver our mail and for the past four days he hasn't even been able to do that because one particularly idiotic neighbor of mine who drives a silver car parked so close to the mailboxes that he couldn't squeeze through to deliver the mail. ASSHOLE! So now I just sent my bro door to door to tell my neighbors to move their bleedin' cars and don't park in front of the mailboxes until after 5pm. Is that really too much to ask?

Freakin jerk. If it was me I'll have a sticky note on his windshield saying "This is a warning, I have friends who are bigger jerks than you."

Some people just suck. I'd start leaving dog crap on their car every time they do it.

"mailmen in their cute little shorts" heh heh. My mailman's nothing to look at, just with blue pants and the neck-cover-cloth-thing hanging down from the back of his hat.

I must hand it to him though, as our mailboxes are the kind attached to the house near the front door, so he has to walk the whole neighborhood every day, and we usually get our mail the same time every day!

See, why can't we have those kind of mailmen in our neighborhood. It's discrimination, I tell you. AE's mailman is the same as mine. Remember how he'd keep running over the garbage container and leaving her packages in the gutter?

I've thought about it but I think the sticky note would do the trick.

By the time you read this I hope you got your mail & had the good luck to move out of that apartment complex and into a real home. Shame on the people who blocked you from the mail!
