So true. I didn’t get any mail for 11 days. In the beginning I tried calling and like you said no answer. Finally I stood in the middle of my street and stopped the mail truck. The delivery person was a kid and really didn’t seem to have a clue, about anything. I wrote all the specifics down and told him to hand it in to the post master. Next day I did get a few pieces of mail. I found the “special” number and the lady I spoke to just attributed it to summer help. So my real question was Where the heck is all the mail I never got? Never got an answer.

I heard of one case where the carrier simply dumped a bunch of mail in a dumpster. If you run out of time by quitting time, you don’t want to come back to the shop with a bunch of undelivered mail.

Wow! 11 days...and I thought ours was bad. I'm still old school about paying my bills the out the mail instead of electronic so when the bills show up late or not at all it's a problem! Our postal carrier has a bad habit of putting mail in the wrong box. I had to get into the habit of checking it all while I was still at the box so I could put any that wasn't ours back in the slot. However magazines and packages require waiting until the next day and crossing your fingers that you catch the postman. I can no longer subscribe to my favorite cooking magazines since the other neighbors don't bother. Packages are a different story, the neighborhood exchanges phone numbers so they can come retrieve their packages when they get home. I won't drop off their packages at their door since package thieves have been a problem around here in the past. On the bright side you get to know your neighbors. 😉
