Post 267 A: Post Office Nightmare.

A few weeks ago I started getting mail in my P.O. Box 1617 for p.o. box 1616 (Servpro). There was a lot, about fifteen letters.

I returned them to the p.o. clerk and explained how they were put in the wrong box.
Yesterday I found my p.o. box locked to me!
i waited in line until I could ask the same clerk what the problem was. He said the box was "pasted due."
I told him I never received a notice.
He tells me they had put three in the box.
I remind him of all the mail I had received that was for box 1616 and ask if they could have put my notices in box 1618? He would not comment, as if the Postal Service makes NO mistakes!

I come back the next day and ask to see the Post Master, William S. cummins (william.s.cummins.gov), and also asked again if it was possible that they had made a mistake. I was told by the same clerk that I had to leave because I was being "abusive"!? I had always been calm and had never rased my voice. I felt like saying "motherf*****, you have NO idea what I do for a living, you haven't seen abusive yet!" But, I was calm and held my tongue. I then asked for a complaint form. Apparently pointing out that the Post Office could be wromg and or made a mistake constitutes "abuse!"

He tells me "we have no complaint forms."
He gives me the business card of the Post Master.
I then ask for a application to repurchase box 1617.
Long story short, I got my P.O. Box back, for $50.00.
I called the post master who was out on a route with a carrier. I explained everthing to him he told me he would "get back to me", which he has yet to do.

No wonder the Post Office is going broke!
I suspect they've hired someone new who has no idea how to read a number! I can see why Fedx and UPS is eating into their business. I wonder what the prize is for incompetence?
