USPS again - This one no doubt tops them all!

Evidently the difference between 205 East Avenue B and 205 West Avenue B is of little importance to our Mail Carrier. We get mail for them and they get mail for us on a fairly regular basis. I’ve just started carrying theirs to their house several blocks away instead of involving the USPS further.

If you have a problem with your mail carrier, the best solution is you run out into the street like a wild person and threaten them, having an object like a tire iron, hedge clippers etc really helps. Use phrases like "Motherfucker" and tell them "You'll never be on this route again", or "I aught to beat your ass", be creative.

And top it off by going up to the Post office and doing the same to the clerks at the front desk. You'll be amazed at the results.

Excellent advice! It has always worked well for me.

I regularly get stuff for a customer who can't pull his head out of his ass long enough to realize he has his stuff sent to the same address but on the south side of town instead of where he's located on the north side. Been dealing with his shit for over a year. Some people are just plain stupid.

Perhaps you should drive to his house with the tire iron and explain to him how things work!

More bad news from the post office for me! Someone was able to apprehend my money order before it got to Tennessee. They altered the front of it changing the name and address. Good thing I took a picture of it before I sent it out. Post office fraud dept. is supposed to send me a form to hopefully get my money back. Stated they were going to prosecute if they could verify the culprit. (They have no idea how it was intercepted.)
Working on 3 months with no money and no item.

Went through this with my local bank. Took 90 days to get the money back. Spent about 8 hours of my time. The amount of time and trouble it takes is ridiculous.
