The stupidity of the general public. Most people couldn't be as stupid as some of the people I deal with if they tried.
Some examples;
No, you will not receive mail anymore if you haven't picked up your mail in almost 2 years, it doesn't matter if it's important, you've lost that privilege over a year ago. Get a PO box.
Yes, you are required to pick up all your mail, whether you want the junk mail or not. You cannot pick and choose what you pick up. Empty it all from your box or you won't get any.
Yes, you are required to use your apartment number on ALL your mail. Insufficient addresses don't get delivered, especially in an apartment complex. I don't give a shit if Amazon delivers without an apartment number, we're not Amazon. If you don't know where you live how can I?
You haven't received mail in 3 weeks because you've had your car in front of your box for 3 weeks, move your car if you want mail.
No, writing a note to your mailman saying not to deliver mail for "current resident" and saying "NO JUNK MAIL" doesn't work. You ARE the current resident, and again, you do not get to choose. You get all your mail or you get no mail. Pick one.
"I've lived here for 6 months and haven't gotten any mail." Well, is you name on your mailbox? "Well, no why should it be?"
