    How do you know their secret?! Either way I'm glad I got out of there when I did. I had to go in there one day to mail a package and there was a new person, guy training her yelled at her for so long that she started crying. Guy was a dick. He was my trainer too.

    In other news I just ended up getting a Dreamcast for $25. Nice.

    It depends on the area and employee in question. I've had issues with all of them but, USPS has been the most consistent in not mauling my packages.

    Hopefully the lady doesn't fuck me over on the Dreamcast...Saw her telling someone else she'd take $25 for it. (Same price I said I'd give her.) So hopefully she sells it to me. (Especially since I was first.)

    overrated.
    the day i need a second entity living with me, is the day the genetic purists (racists) are right.
    finally, solitude...is what was required at birth, now i have it.

    Update: Just got off the phone with them.

    The dude says a piece of mail with my last name on it was found in the mailbox sometime ago saying the person no longer lived there, they had a change of address on file for that last name. I said I do live here, moved here just over a month and a half ago, and that I did file a change of address but that was to get my mail from Waterloo (where I used to be) to here. I ask if my cousin's name (who lives here as well) might have caused some problem, no (we don't share the same last name so I knew that wasn't going to be it). The guy then asks who's blah blah? My grandma, who you know, passed away two years ago and used to live here...it was her name on the mail (so how old or long ago they found that mail in the mailbox is beyond me), it was her name on the forward address, and since I share the last name, the carrier just applied it to me for some reason. I then say, but I've received mail here for over a month (several packages during that time) and just had the issue pop up starting last Thursday. The dude says I never should been receiving mail here to begin with and doesn't know why I was and then suddenly stopped. He will file a thing that says I do live here so I shouldn't have this issue anymore. He said he will have his sorter look for my second package that had this issue because it might still be there since it just came in yesterday, and call me if they find it so I can come get it. The first package unfortunately the tracking showed that it left Des Moines, IA this morning, which is ironic because that is the package from RightStuf who is headquartered in Grimes, which is right outside Des Moines. Best part is, if they were forwarding the mail because they thought I was my grandma somehow, that forwarding should go to my parents, who just so happen to live in Germany. So know I'll have to call my dad and tell him to be on the lookout possibly for my package if it doesnt get stopped in time.

    Welp, the lady decided to sell the Dreamcast out from underneath me. And had the nerve to come up to me where we were supposed to meet to offer me something else. (Which, wasn't even gaming related.) People piss me off.

    Let me see if I've got this right. Not only did they sell to someone else, they didn't bother telling you until after the fact?

    The first one he said should be returned to sender if it was done properly, that does explain why it would go back to Des Moines (considering that is where RightStuf is headquartered), but he couldn't do anything about that one, so I had to send a notice to RightStuf about all this shit asking for them to send it back now once they get it

    Best part is that mail forwarding in my grandma's name has expired, and yet they still did it anyway
