Is anyone so respectful of riduculous laws as to not give the
mail carrier a gift (cash in my case) at Xmas? I've also never
met a carrier who refused the gift and I always get a thankyou
card!

I may be tempted to give a Christmas tip to my maile carrier if he/she
ever manages to deliver all my mail in my mail box, not in thei
neighbours, and only my mail in my box. Given my 30 years experience at
this location I doubt that will ever happen.

I stopped giving the mail carrier the time of day he started cutting
through a flower garden to get to the mailbox. I've asked him twice to
please walk around it and the request doesn't seem to sink in.

Yeah! Mine, too. I told her three times. Finally, I surrounded the garden
with garden stakes every couple of feet, waist high. Looks awful, but I
thought it would work. No. She turns sideways and slips between them.
Finally, I put yellow caution tape all around the garden, which REALLY looks
awful. So far, so good. But, I have to ask her if she'll continue avoiding
the garden after I remove the tape. If not, it's time to talk to her boss.
