This morning was anything but boring. I no sooner get George's meds down him then I'm met at the door by my next door neighbor. On Saturday his mailbox broke when the carrier put a package that should've taken to the front door, in it. He thought she hit it and well, we were outside when it happened so I had to clear up what happened.

One of our previous mail carriers would stuff our box to the point of bending packages, pushing in or down on packages, etc. So lazy by not bringing to the door. I'm glad she is gone! Our new one is always bringing to the door. She actually honks the horn because she is scared of the dog. he is on a lead and can't get even close to her, but oh well.

@kaylachan Exactly, and don't get me started on Fed Ex deliveries!

No, of course not. That isn't stopping to make a point.

@kaylachan yeah that's what I figured, like the 1 that tore down my fence they won't admit they done it so they won't fix it, but THAT'S alright

Why don't people do their jobs correctly?

I wonder why the package wasn't just delivered to the door . . . you'd think the carrier should know better than that. Was it crammed in or placed on top? I'm assuming they won't take responsibility for it.

@kaylachan Either they weren't thinking or they were trying to make a short cut so as not to have to carry a package to the door.

Our mailman used to put the package on front of the mailbox on the sidewalk where anyone could walk by and take the package. I went to the post office to complain now the package is put inside of our gate.

I hate that some people just don't think. The package was clearly to heavy for the mailbox. And, when the box did break, she acted like it hadn't came to our house and moved on. I think that's more what our neighbor is more upset about.

Our mailbox got obliterated by a s**w plow. My husband's 2nd cousin taped it up with duct tape so I could temporarily get mail... Have a good day.

I am glad you could set things straight. Packages do not really belong in mail boxes.

I'm sorry the mailman broke your neighbor's mailbox putting a package into it.

Will they fix the mailbox? We had broken mailboxes too, but they replaced them after a long time.
