But the thing that is really irritating, is when I receive this little pink slip in my mailbox that says something to the effect: "you were not home when when we tried to deliver the certified/registered item, so now you can drive to the post office and pick it up." Well, we have been at home waiting for this item and the mailperson didn't feel like walking up to our door to get our signature!

So annoying!! I've had this happen so many times: I was sitting at home all day, and the delivery person never bothered to knock or ring the doorbell for my signature. I've now taken to putting huge signs on the door saying that I am home and not to leave without getting my signature.

), but I'm feeling a bit guilty about not being a bit more tolerant about how they've been affected recently. Just thought I should acknowledge that.

Just this evening I went to get the mail and found a clear plastic bag containing two crumpled fragments of an envelope that my grandma sent me for my birthday. It originally contained a $200 check. That was obviously long gone. The clear plastic bag had "USPS: WE CARE" printed on it. Sure you do.... the way my mailbox is and the way my grandma's mailbox is means that the only people with an opportunity to steal it are USPS workers.
Haha yeah that would make me roll my eyes for sure!
JD had a huge argument w/them. The first person in town he talked to said "Huh, well I dunno what to tell you". The Post Master did use the tracking and find it in the Mail Recovery Center. He called the MRC. They said oh yeah, it's here. Can I get it back? No. Why not? We don't know where it is. But you said it's for sure THERE? Yes. So...why can't you send it back to me? We don't know where it is. You said it's THERE how can you NOT know where it is? It's a big building. So, what, you just basically open up the door and throw stuff onto the floor in a big giant shit heap? Well, no. So why can't you find it? It's on a shelf somewhere. You don't have a LIST, nothing is written DOWN? No, we just put it in here, but there's so much stuff we can't possibly go thru it all. It would make sense to have things categorized so you can give them BACK, would it not?? Well, there's a lot of stuff here and we'd be too busy having to go find things for people that are lost. Aaaaaand that's when JD went ballistic about their handling practices, and the guy was like ohhh yeah, the box was super taped, superior packaging blah blah blah, but sometimes these things happen. Shoulda had insurance.
Nice. So then we got in the mail two parts of the box---our return address and the mailing address. And we had to send pictures of what the items were on the "off chance" someone happened to stumble upon them. Whatever.
