Nakia Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Yesterday I had my puppy out in the pouring rain trying to coax him to stay under the umbrella and go potty. About the time I was ready to give up, my mailman pulled up in my drive-way, in plain sight of me, and starting blowing his horn. This is his method of choice to let me know I have a package or anything requiring signature. Let me take a moment to say this mailman is a real piece of work. Not only does he sit in my drive-way and blow his horn to get my attention, but if we aren't home and I have a package he leaves in on my uncovered back porch (no matter the weather) with letters and other mail ON TOP of the package. A lot of my mail and several packages have been ruined because of his carelessness. We even have a covered front porch, but he doesn't want to walk up the 10 steps to get to it, I guess. Also, he smokes in his car so most of my stuff reeks of smoke. UGH! I have called and complained numerous times to no avail. We've requested no package deliveries when we aren't home, but that didn't work either. It's just a pain. Back to yesterday, he pulled up, and I knew he could see me, but he blew his horn anyway. So I picked up the dog and started towards his car with the umbrella in my other hand. It was muddy, I didn't have on good shoes, it was raining, I was irritated...I fell. Flat on my butt. I managed to hang on to the dog, but the umbrella went flying. I was about 6-7 feet from the mailman's car. I gathered myself together, got the umbrella and headed over to his car. He said, "Are you all right?" I said, "Yes!" grabbed my package and went in the house. I'm pissed to be honest. It hurt my pride to bust my butt in front of someone and then have to walk back up to my house (a short distance) with mud all over me. My feelings were hurt that he didn't even as much as open his car door to see if I needed help. BTW, before someone suggests it, he has no disabilities that prevent him from at least stepping out of his car to check on me. I wasn't expecting him to lift my fat butt off the ground or anything. I have a bad neck (bulging discs in C3-C6) and so my neck along with my hips, lower back, and tail bone are killing me. I'm walking around like an elderly person. I just needed to vent. I need someone to poo poo me and tell me he is a butthead and I am a princess. My husband did, but I wanted to hear it from you all. I am a goofball. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatCyndiGirl Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) Dear Princess Nakia, The mailman called and confessed his butt-headedness to me. Love, ~Cyndi P.S. Your thread could be considered offensive and hurtful to those people who do not have mailpersons. I believe that sensitivity is called for here.

SKL Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 My mailman ticks me off, too. Doesn't seem quite as bad as yours, though. Hopefully yours will retire or something and you'll get an awesome one next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Alex would have gotten out of the truck for you. Alex would have carried you and the dog into the house, and then gone and chewed out the postal worker for not helping. The postal carrier would no longer deliver packages to your back porch. Alex would do that for you, just because you are a princess. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MamaT Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Cameron will be appalled when I tell him this, and will want to go slay butt-headed mailman for Princess Nakia. By the way, we must have the same mailman. Drives me batty. Cameron can't stand things like that. He saw a pretty serious car wreck yesterday, stopped, and ran across two lanes of traffic to see if he could help. NO ONE else stopped in the 15 minutes it took help to get there. It was an elderly couple and he held the woman's hand until the ambulance came. He ranted on and on last night about no one stopping to help.

Remudamom Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Our mailman that we had for years before he retired would come to the door, open it, holler for me, holler for dh, holler for the kids, avoid the heeler dog and then come in and put stuff on the kitchen table!! We know his mom, his wife, his children and his grandchildren. He gave my big city mom a heart attack one day when he walked in with a package. Our mailman now has great potential. He's a kid in our eyes, but we know his parents and his children too. He knows that we know where he lives. 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommyfaithe Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 He is a butt head. You are a princess who looks good even with mud and a busted hienie. I am sorry you got hurt. My jerky snowplow guy saw me take a flying fall...and never even asked if I was ok. He is a butt head too. :001_smile: Faithe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
