I remember a mail man friend of mine, about 18 years ago, telling me that if not for junk mail, he wouldnt have a job
I am really really bad with mail. About every six months I finally crack and go through the pile. Literally, without exaggeration, I toss 8 big hefty bags out and average 1 or two letters that are important . What a colossal freakin waste of resources
one of the best thing someone taught me about mail is to never let it go through your hands twice.
have a can by the door, pitch the junk as it comes in, open and deal and pay the mail that needs attention, right away. I have the can by the door, and my check book too. nothing ever leaves the hall, and there is no mess.
