gooderboy 12/08/2005 10:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ... come on now... I know thereīs stuff in your box at times, and the walking is most gooder for ya too. (come along with me and Iīll even let ya carry me mail bag, lol) I just bought a new mailbox. I do not want a new one. The easy solution would be to write up people with old ugly mailboxes and make them repair or replace them. ... gooder for you, and I hope itīs gooder mailbox too. We canīt write up any old and/or ugly mailboxes. The only time we can do anything about someoneīs box is if we cannot deliver their mail. Why do they let old people who donīt have a clue what they are talking about have mailboxes? ... cuz they still have the right to get their mail, and donīt ya know. (and most sad to say too, but many of them older folks get hooked on all that īPublisherīs Clearing Houseī kinda crap... and ouch!) We seldom leave outgoing mail in the mailbox. ... gooder for you here too, lol... I wish more folks would do the same, and cuz after all, walking mail carriers are trying to lighten theirs pack-loads, not add to them, lol. We use to put mail in our box for outgoing with the flag but stopped for the reason that noone wrote back.. ... I suggest trying other outlets then... or... expand upon yourself and your world a tad bit. w/luv, just me (the gooderboy mailman) |
Wag 12/08/2005 10:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It is my firmly held conviction that mailboxes attract snowplows. I have lived in the same place for several years. We have owned several different types of mailboxes. We have installed them in a variety of ways. All totally fruitless. Every winter, first plowable fall, my box is at an angle. Once the box went down in a really big snowfall, and the mail therein was discovered along the ditch the next spring. Unfortunately, it is illegal to mount the box on something really permanent, like a poured concrete block, or a really BIG boulder, because that might damage the plow. (I was favoring the idea of explosives for a while) What this means is that I pay Federal taxes for services I am unable to receive (home delivery), town taxes for the salary of the idiot that smacks my box down, and have to rent a box in town, and pay for a new box every year. This is getting expensive.... Not to mention the fact that UPS can never find my house, even though it is on the road in plain view, and they deliver to my neighbors every week. Because our address said Rural Route #X for years, they UPS maintains that it is not a home address, and they do not deliver to post boxes. They have me coming and going.... |
gooderboy 12/08/2005 10:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sorry to hear about them snow plows, and ugh! "What this means is that I pay Federal taxes for services I am unable to receive (home delivery), town taxes for the salary of the idiot that smacks my box down, and have to rent a box in town, and pay for a new box every year. This is getting expensive...." ... no, ya donīt pay any Federal Taxes for your mail delivery. Our only connection "now" with the U.S. Govīt is that we are in the Constitution (which basicly means that we cannot, and under any circumstances, go on strike)... and as in īthe mail must go throughī. If your box is down then you shouldnīt have to rent a box in town. They should just hold it for you... and just like when ya go on vacation, or are Snowbirding, or out of town for a couple of days... and until you get your new box up. There should be no prob with that one aītall... itīs them dang plowers, lol. Not to mention the fact that UPS can never find my house, even though it is on the road in plain view, and they deliver to my neighbors every week. Because our address said Rural Route #X for years, they UPS maintains that it is not a home address, and they do not deliver to post boxes. ... this shouldnīt be happening either. We (USPS) now have a deal with UPS that covers that one... check with your P.O.... and cuz we get loads of UPS packages (mostly rural routes too) that we deliver. (in exchange the USPS also uses their planes) w/luv, just me |
