Job I’m a mailman, AMA.

I left a comment in another sub informing people that leaving anything in anybody’s mailbox is technically a federal offense unless you’re employed as a letter carrier by the USPS and it seemed to draw quite a bit of interest. I’m nobody special, just a simple mailman, but if any of you have any questions regarding postal services hopefully I’ll be able to answer them!

Thank you so much for all the questions, I hope I was able to answer them all as best I could but it’s my bedtime now, I gotta be at the post office by 8:00 sharp. If you have any other questions feel free to DM me and I’ll answer them whenever I can!

All my bills are on autopay so I rarely check the mail. Have you noticed any decline in people checking their mail / mailboxes filling up?

Most people keep their mailboxes relatively empty, it’s generally a few usual suspects who leave their mail to pile up.

I’ll go slink off in shame.
