That would really burn my ass! In a time when the groups like the post office are struggling to stay competitive and afloat they should be a lot nicer to people and especially in a situation like that. Our post office group has been getting bad. We have a small business that requires us to ship a shitload of packages a week. That means driving to the good post office is about 15 miles away which isn’t that bad considering some areas. When we do anything there we know it’s going to go well. When we request mail pick up though, there are a couple carriers that are so damn lazy they show up around 630 PM to deliver our mail, have to go through over a hundred units and leave around 8 some nights. They then try to say “there were no packages in the hall” of our building when we check the tracking to see if they picked up our stuff that we need to go out. They’ve done this 5 times so far this year and successfully picked up our stuff I think the other 5. Not too bad but pretty shitty that they can’t do what we ask them but will just outright lie saying they did it. Annoys my wife to no end!
I would lay into the post master about handing someone a package if they are right in front of you. That’s bogus. She shouldn’t have to fear for her job for something so foolish.
