I have a funny (true) story. Our mail lady hates us, and it's just weird. A couple months ago, she woke me up by pounding on the door, then proceeding to yell in my face about not having enough access to my box. Which is just a funny statement to me. But anyway, she was soooo condescending it was unnerving. So I reported her to her superiors via an E mail complaint to the USPS. So I received a call from the postmaster and blah blah blah, she was probably reprimanded.
But the funny part is last Saturday (Christams Eve), she was a knocking again. And this time she said she hit our car out front. But the thing is, it wasn't our car...it was my brother in law's. She has the cahunas to say that it is HIS fault. Not because she is obviously a terrible driver or anything like that! And the topper is that her personal insurance won't cover the accident (she uses her own vehicle), because she said she didn't use the vehicle for work to her insurance co. so she could get lower rates.
She told her boss that she has had nothing but trouble with "those people"! Boom boom, ain't it great to be crazy?

LOL too funny....your mail lady must be related to ours.
In our old house....we had no ditches and she used to weave way into my yard while going to the neighbors mailbox and make ruts in our lawn. I got really aggravated with fixing the ruts so I got some decorative landscaping rocks and placed them on the lawn like 4-5 feet off of the road on the lawn. You should of heard the loud banging noise they made when she STILL drove over them...all I could say was boy thats good for your rocker panels! THEN she would complain to me that the rocks were there~ my reply was why are you driving on my lawn when there is a perfectly smooth paved road out there to use?
One week I got no mail at all! On like the 5th day I got a "warning card" that there was debri in the road that was obstructing the mail lady from delivering. It was about dark when I pulled this out of my mail box and read it ( yea I wondered how she was able to get through this so called "debri" to put that card in there lol) I searched for this debri near my mail box----found nothing...I even went inside and got a flash light to assure that I wasn't missing something. I then headed down to the post master and asked her what the gig was with this lady. The post master told me that the mail lady told her ( are ya ready for this?)---there was some broken glass in the MIDDLE of the road and she was NOT about to drive through it and ruin her tires. I was shocked! LOL Of course I immediately quit my job to stay home and become a full time road sweeper to assure that the road was clean and clear of ALL debri that would upset this woman.....lol
There are tons of stories about what we call our "mail dilema" it is nuts to think that this happens everywhere...HMMMMM...and I thought I was the only one!
I forgot to mention that I must have brought her wrath upon myself since I complained about our mail showing up OPENED before. I went to the post office and showed the guy at the desk before, and he said it was impossible! "If it were to show up here or become damaged while in our possession, we stamp it damaged." I said, well there's one more person touching it after you, and what is her interest in my mail? It was mostly just bills she opened! Our mail is delivered opened at least once a week, and I've complained 3 times. I figured she must get her jollies that way, so I gave up.
When she threatened me with not delivering the mail, I said "so don't". There's nothing you can deliver that I can't get online. You are becoming obsolete!
This is KSPEER, I don't feel like switching the log in and all that crap!

I used to call the P.O. and complain, but then it occurred to me, you know it's a tough job these rural mailpeople have. I often see my mail lady eating her lunch at the side of the road. So I started leaving little gifts in the mailbox during the holiday season, planted flowers at the base of the mailbox to brighten her day, greet her with a smile and a hello when I happen to be out there at the time she pulls up. You'd be amazed at what a little human kindness can do.

DITTO NYCOWIFE's Postal Inspector route! Their power is absolute and incredible. Want your mail delivered properly, you know like they're paid to do..? Call the Inspectors!
Send yourself some letters and photograph the sealed flap as you put them into public mail boxes for post. Then, if they turn up opened at your house....Hmm?
If too timid to try the Postal Inspector route, you could try leaving a nice little assortment of expensive cookies, you could also try jewelery and or gold bullion--(that should work), a set of keys to a new car or house on the beach, a short stack of your most valuable stock certs., $100. and Up gift certs., and if a postal mail-lady-woman, a fur coat is always nice...monkey fur might be a bit much, all things considered but worth the try I suppose to show sincerity and as an offering of human kindness.
The name is incorrect so who knows? I do know that there is a Riccuiti that is a recently released felon, so I wouldn't want to mess with him and use HIS name. Just a thought Jim.
You don't have the balls to "mess" with anybody, you worthless piece of cowardly shiit.

Jimmy : In an earlier posting you stated that you knew where I lived. Why not come on over for a coffee and we'll straighten this right out? I'm open and available to discuss this with you. You seem so full of anger and real rage. Why is that? Something a little too tight? Loosen up. Or it up.
It's a new year Bud--you're going to grind your teeth right out of your head. That's not good. WHO is this personal reference that you keep interjecting in your posts? Why not just say who it is you are referencing.
THAT seems SO cowardly. --------------------------------------------------

"A little out of line"....??
YOU'RE WELCOME Ray! I feel that there is a fine line that shouldn't be crossed.
I'm sorry-again but I really don't feel sincere with my first apology--unless KS wants it that is. Then I'll happily give it sincerely. I added the humorous bit at the end of my first post here, after giving a couple of serious suggestions that I thought were maybe of value to KSpeer. Oh well.
I NEVER expected a response like the one that was given to me (did you read all of the threads-?)
Now Ray.., as far as fanning any fires or smoking goes.., I've got the fire extinguisher ready after your "manager" comment.
Now, now, now :) If you'll take 01% to be manager, you're hired.
lou your all right, and your even funny, but by saying sorry your truly a man. we may just have to hook this manager idea up so keep me in mind. but did i hear right . that jspeer guy maybe ref, well all it comes down to is get the stripes JOE.
One of my best friends is a class 3 ref, Robby D'Angelo. I'm sure he would do it for free just to see a good fight. Rob trains fighters at Seishin Kan Karate School. We used to own Lock City Boxing together along with Bill "The Energizer Bunny" Timkey. Bill has moved on but Robby and me have still kept things alive. Robby is one of the best, most honest people I have ever met. He's married to Vicki Verity D'Angelo who is also a ref. The two of them together just bring a smile to your face! I know this sounds like a plug but HEY!...my friends mean alot to me. I guess my A.D.D is kickin' in tonight(waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay off topic!) or maybe it's the wine with Kels! LOL!
