30. So do I!

Feb 2014

I have an online business, and they are just awesome. I wouldn't use anyone else. My mail lady caught a dumb mistake I made on a package this week. I realized I'd put on the wrong sticker, but sure enough, she let me know and asked it if was okay that she fixed it herself before I could even ask her about it. She will also pick up packages at my door, and get this: brings packages to my door. The UPS guy just stashes my packages in-between the garbage bins on the side of the house because it's too much to walk 10 extra feet, I guess. I didn't find that sucker until a couple days later because he'd logged that he dropped it at my side door when I don't have a side door. My mail lady goes the extra mile, never mind 10 measly feet. The USPS is amazing, and I wish more Americans realized this. They are so taken for granted!
