I was planning to stick $20 in a card. Guess he is getting a Subway gift card now.

Many years ago when I first moved into my house we would one one regular mail carrier whom we came to know well. I always left her a card with $20 and a small box of treats. She retired and later we started getting random people delivering mail. I don’t do anything these days.

Sort the mail?


Sometimes when mail is delivered to apartment buildings they just dump it all on the lobby floor rather than sorting into mailboxes. It’s annoying.

I read this as "trapping the mailman" and I thought a dog was posting on DCUM.

Our mail lady leaves treats for our dogs in our mailbox. She started about a month ago.
I definitely want to tip.
