For the second time in a month, I parked in front of my curbside mailbox on
a Saturday. I come out today after 2pm and notice a note on my car.

" 2nd time u park in front of mail box. Please don not park in front of my
workplace (Underlined) Mail maybe held at address" (double underline)

I usually don't park in front of my mailbox 8-5 just for this reason. During
the week I park there after 6pm but I leave before 7am. I move the
car on Sat morn as a common courtesy but wasn't able to today and one other
time this month. This in an one car driveway and that space is reserved for a more powerful person.

So I just want to say I'm sorry to the mailman that he had to get out of his truck
and walk four feet to put the mail in my mailbox for the second time in a month.

If you put the trash on the curb, and park in front of it, the trashmen won't pick it up either. Park in your GD driveway.

... I bet 30 people feel the same way as you do. The carrier gets paid based on the rated time that he should be spending on the road. Delays cost money out of HIS pocket.

I recomend you make efforts to curb your false sense of entitlement.

I love when peole are wrong and continue with but but but but ... a tue sign of an ignorant person.
