Honestly, if I could give a zero, I would the fact that they never close my mailbox. My mail is usually soaking wet with the rain or as of today My whole mailbox is full of snow with my mail in it by the way.!!! Watch the postman come by and he didn’t do anything. He just left it like it was. I swear it’s hard to find good work these days.!!!

Was waiting around for a package to be delivered today already knowing it needed to be signed for. Received an email stating it was undeliverable due to authorized recipient not being home (informed delivery). Went out to my mailbox to find a slip stating couldn’t be delivered and the other box check marked and a note stating “which house?” I have a long driveway shared with another house. If the delivery person had bothered driving down the driveway, they would’ve seen which house is mine because it is numbered. Now I have to wait until Monday to get the package from the post office.
