Thoughts, Theories & Therapy.
So Isaac got a package in the mail today. Nothing big, but a medium-sized envelope that contained a CD he had ordered. All over the front of the package it was stamped, postage due: $0.34 and postage paid by carrier. Please leave in (mail) box. Our carrier had left the package even though postage was owed on it.
Now don’t get me wrong, it was really nice of our carrier to pay for the $0.34, and I don’t mind reimbursing him for it at all. I mean really, $0.34 is not something to lose sleep over. But something does bother me and that is the fact that this package was sent first class. Meaning, that the POST OFFICE had to weigh and print out the postage before it was mailed. It had one of those nice printed labels with the bar code and pre-printed stamp that ONLY comes from the post office.
So explain to me, why do we (or our mail carrier for that matter) have to pay for the post office’s error?
