Big Brother…always watching

So by now you know we’re moving. When preparing to move, we agreed to end our lease a month early- and stay with friends. This benefitted us because we didn’t have to pay rent for the month of June- and this benefitted the landlord/new tenants, because it worked with their schedule.

I asked the new tenants to continue to accept our mail for the month of June. They happily agreed to do so. This kept us from having to forward our mail twice in 2 months. The first week after our move out-no mail. We stop at the house and the tenants say ‘nothing has come’- odd- becuase we ALWAYS have medical bills- never fails…ALWAYS. So on Saturday I go to the post office. The lady says ” oh, well- the carrier thought you moved out, so we’re holding your mail.” Ok- we didn’t fill out any paperwork- I don’t even know what the mail person looks like ( so how would he know that we’ve moved out, since we’ve never even MET!!!!!!!)…and how do they just decide that they figure we’ve moved out- and hey- their mail can just sit here for awhile.

So I kindly inform her that we want our mail going where it is addressed- ” No problem”

Next week- groundhog day- the exact same thing happens. No mail. We go BACK to the post office- new person- same story…and this time they REFUSE to deliver the mail- because despite repeated requests for them to deliver our mail as addressed- they have decided that we are just shady enough to need our mail held at the post office for safe keeping.

I just don’t get it…and if they delay my stimulus check delivery- there will be major, major problems….

Wait- did I just issue a threat to the post office???? Damn- now my mail is going to be opened before it’s delivered.
