Never. I always drop off at Post Office. I don’t trust the mail carrier’s competence and prefer to eliminate a step


Absolutely.

Our mailman will offset the houses on our street by 1, so I'm always getting the neighbor's mail. They also leave package out in the middle of the driveway instead of walking it to the door. If they can't even get the delivery right, there is no way I can trust them to pick up a bill or letter.

When I finally beat back the jasmine around the post. It has been an epic battle over the last year. Flag was raised in my victory.

This is actually illegal. You shouldn't ever use the flag.

Well that's a big no-no. My delivery lady left my hard back Cabela's catalog in the middle of my driveway one day about 15 feet from my front door. We even have a table by the front door just for mail packages. Anywho, I made a trip to our post office, raised a little heck and was promised it won't happen again. It hasn't.

Now she just pulls up to the garage and blows her horn for me to come get it. Sometimes I oblige her, sometimes I make her get out of her car and put the package where she is suppose to.
