<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim Dale, post: 8175653, member: 100459&quot;]I, too, have problems with our &quot;mail person&quot;.&nbsp; They (I say They, because it seems they change &quot;mail persons&quot; frequently.)&nbsp; We get mail for a house on the next street.&nbsp; They have they same house number.&nbsp; They get ours too.&nbsp; The street names are not similar either.&nbsp; Ours is Wayne and theirs is Wautaga.&nbsp; We have the same trouble with mail to and from our next door neighbor.&nbsp; Our house is 209 and theirs is 205.&nbsp; I contacted the manager of our post office and was told that mail is sorted by a machine and when something is similar, the machine makes mistakes.&nbsp; My grandfather was a mailman for 40 years.&nbsp; A live person sorts the mail at the post office and the mail is put in the mail bag.&nbsp; My grandfather would take the letters in hand and look at each parcel to confirm that the mail is for the right house.&nbsp; He worked at the Indianapolis Post Office for 20 years and moved to L.A. and worked there for 20 years.&nbsp; He told me that he only got one complaint.&nbsp; It was an older lady and she tried to get my grandfather to come into her house for a cup of tea.&nbsp; He told her he couldn&#039;t, but said he could sit on the porch with her and have his cup of tea.&nbsp; Her complaint, he would never stop for a cup of tea with the lady.&nbsp; It would put him behind in his schedule.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
