okay so my mail man countless of times does NOT deliver our mail. and no its not cause we dont have mail that day...its cause he hears our dogs barking, that are inside our house, no way of them getting out, and walks partially up our lawn but then hears the dogs, has our mail in his hand but then turns and doesnt even deliver our mail. then puts our mail back into his freaking sack thingy and then gets our a different mail stack and delivers our neighbors mail. PLUS!!!! he's tried to pepper spray our dogs through the security gate we have!!!!! not acceptable!
i'm waiting for a package that should have been delivered yesterday. but instead of the package, i got a note in my mail box saying that i have to go to the post office to pick it up instead. OR in smaaalllll writing i could go online and request to have it redelivered. so i did that yesterday and it should have came today. but it didnt. i even filled out that little piece of paper that was left in my mail box, and i signed it and everything. and i watched the mail man take it. if he does NOT deliver my package tomorrow....i WILL report him! i mean he's a freakin mail man! dont get the job if your a dog hater + dont want to deliver people's mail when thats your job!!!!!! and he's a shady person! he reported me saying i verbally abused him when i did not! and he's referring to an incident that happend when i was 10 years old. and im 19 now! and i wouldnt have gotten an attitude if he hadnt skipped our house 3 days in a row and walk away from me really fast acting like he didnt even see me! UGH im sooo fed up.
how do i report this stupid jackass!!!!???????
thanks

I have what I call a MAIL NAZI also... she is a Witch... she stopped our mail once because she saw a moving truck in the driveway... I told her we were having furniture delivered, (As if it was her business what we were doing at all) she claimed she couldn't have the mail backing up in the box, I told her, The mail wasn't backing up cause we never left... then she comes to the door and delivers packages and is pissy... then she places ??? marks on anything that she feels doesn't belong here, such as a friend who may be visiting and recieveing a piece of mail here.. Again as if it's her business,... and then she refused to deliver our mail because a car was parked near (not blocking) but near the mail box, and because she felt that the car could be parked elsewhere and she didn't feel she should have to step out of her truck a step to place mail in the box, that she wasn't going to deliver it... then I confronted her and she told me :" Why can't you park that car in your driveway"? I told her that a vehicle was parked in the driveway until about 8am then that person, my nephew goes to work , then the mail is delivered shortly afterward... and I told her, " What, I need to get approval of where I park my cars from YOU? "

I told her, look lady... if the mail has this address on it DELIVER IT, don't worry about who's name is on it... Resident and Occupant doesn't live here, but you cram that crap in my box all the time... don't worry about who's name is on the mail, don't worry about how we park our cars, or if there is a moving truck in the driveway..WE will tell YOU when to stop our mail... we don't need you to decide for us.

She got pissed again, and finally I went to the postmaster to report her, and they supported her on everything I told them, and I left because I was ready to create a scene that likely would have brought in the law...

I don't know what to tell you, but I have a MAIL NAZI also...

She also tried to cause problems with my neighbor over their dogs who just bark and have never attacked or charged her...

Some mail carriers are azzholes with authority...

You can call the postmaster at your local post office to report his not delivering mail, but they may not be on your side. The postal carriers do NOT have to deliver mail to a house if they fear attack by dogs. You mention the dogs are inside, but dogs have been known to break windows to get at someone (it happened to one of my neighbors). So if you have large dogs and he has to walk close to your house and can see or hear the dogs just inside a window, he may have a reasonable fear that the dogs will somehow get out.

First of all you need to know that getting mail delivered to your door is a privilege not a right. I thought everyone had mail delivered to their door or mail box. However not always the case. You are lucky if you do have mail delivered to your door.

Sadly you cant do much about this. You can contact your local post master general and explain that the mailman seems to be scared to deliver your mail. OR leave a note for the mail man at your neighbors house and explain that the dogs are locked up inside and they are in no danger and to please deliver your mail. OR ask, in a note, for them to give your mail to your neighbor (if you trust your neighbor).



At my ex BFs house the mailman wouldnt deliver mail to his house if the road had too many potholes. We had to pick it up in person. Also my current BF lives so close to the post office that the post office decided that all people on my BFs street have to pick their mail up at the post office and do not get delivered mail. It is not a right but a privilege to get mail at your house.

He is not required to in danger his life, to deliver your mail. Move your mail box out to a safe area for him to drop it of. Or get a post box. Go to the post office, Talk to the person in charge, And make arrangements to have the problem solved, Or talk to the post person. And see if moving the mail box to a area they are comfortable in might do it.

Once you get evidence you can report him to the Post Office. 800-275-2777.



The post office however require that the mail box be accessible. A dog loose in the yard that the

mail carrier is afraid of is enough excuse for them to not deliver your mail.



So if you complain be prepared to have to get a PO Box for your mail.

For the deficient efficiency the neighborhood Postmaster (and be certain that you just desire a comply with-up record at the mailbox obstacle). If the Postmaster does not anything approximately the mailbox, touch the Postal Inspectors, they implement Federal Law in the case of the Postal Service.

If what you say is true, you should send a registered letter, with a return receipt, to the Postmaster of your local post office. I can assure you it will be investigated.



By sending it registered, the Postmaster will know you are serious about the problem.

You talk to his supervisor at the Post Office. This is not Police business.



However it is my understanding that if dogs are looose , he does not have to dollar.



Are you saying you expect him to come in the gate and get bit possibly?



That's not going to happen.
