Does you postal carrier person ever speak to you?

I have sometimes wondered, DO THEY TELL postal carriers NOT TO TALK TO the locals? In my opinion, they are always talking to themselves, VIA CELL PHONE BLU TOOTH on their constant jibber jabber mobiles. Back in the day, it used to be a common thing to ask the postman DO YOU WANT A SODA ON THIS HOT SUMMER AFTERNOON? My father became friends with the local postman. It turned out that he was a poet and often spent a few minutes talking about the old days to my dad, who was retired at the time and he never met a stranger. These days, I don't ever talk to the postman or post woman, when they are doing their rounds, unless I am out working in the yard and they speak to me first. It seems like a good idea seeing as every day we get a different MAIL MAN because we are on a practice or TRAINING route. If you see your mail carrier dude or lady, and they are taking the time to deliver your packages or BILLS it is always a good thing to at least thank them for their efforts.
