If you end up getting no where call your US Congressman Or Senator and explain to them how a constituent has received poor poor customer service that has been paid for. If needed explain to them that there are a lot of other constituents on this site. I have worked for the govenrment for a while and believe me when a politicain gets involved solutions arrive really quickly and or not delayed at all. I have spent the better part of the morning on my day off readding this on dail up no less. It is sad to hear about this, but never the less you have been very mature about it. You are correct about the USPS most employees try hard but there are a few who just plain LAZY AND CARELESS.

LET YOUR FEDERAL POLITICAINS KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING FOR FEDERAL SEVICES THAT YOU PAID FOR.

Sorry for being curt. But it frustrates me to know this happened. Sorry Frank

This often works. My daughter applied for a passport in plenty of time for a trip to Japan that SHE had paid for (at 16) - 5 days before the trip it wasn't here and the normal route wasn't getting us anywhere. We called our local congressman at 3 in the afternoon and by golly her passport arrived by fed-ex at 9 the next morning - we had been told by the passport people that they couldn't put any kind of rush on it because the people who paid for expediated service got bumped to the front of the line.

Aww man, I totally missed the crazy person here and ranting. See, going away from keyboard to do dishes is bad!

I'm glad to hear you recieved your other eggs without trouble. Hopefully your mail lady was talked to about this and maybe learned her lesson.

My mother used to mail me a package a week when I was pregnant with my kids. She isn't right, I know, but she would pay extra for these packages to get to me faster. I *never* recieved a single package without first getting a "failed to deliver" notice and then having to call and yell at them. I was always home. My husband worked during the day and he would have the truck so I was just always home. No one ever knocked on my door to deliver a package and there was no reason they couldn't have left them on the step.

One day I sat watching for her. I knew a package was coming and when she drove up she put the mail in the box and never bothered getting out of her car to come to the door. I went out to check the box and sure enough, there was another of those slips in there. Lucky me, living in the first house on a dead end street means she had to come back past me. LoL, the look on her face when I made her stop and handed her that slip, requesting my package... turns out she didn't bother putting it her car. I caught her so off guard she didn't even have a good lie to cover with! That was the last time I ever had a package not delivered. Now she knocks on my door and waits for me to answer. She brings me all my mail, my package and she even SMILES as she does it. If I'm not home, which is rare, she sets the package on my step for me and my mail is waiting in the box. If for some reason my package did get forgotten by mistake she delivers it at the end of the day and she always tells me how sorry she is and why she was late with it. Now I don't need all that. People do make mistakes and there is nothing to be sorry about when it is honest, but I am happy that she has learned from this and does her job the way she is suposed to.

There are many great postal workers out there, I count mine in that group now because she fixed the issue and everything is great now. I hope you have the same happy ending in your story.

I'm sorry you've obviously had bad experiences with postal workers, but lumping them all together like this is a seriously incorrect generalization. If I even think a package won't fit in to a box or it's marked fragile or I know they're excitedly expecting it, I hand deliver it to their door. The only time I don't get out is when there's a dog that is threatening.

That was not me who stated that, and in preious posts, I talk about some of my mailman friends from the town I used to live in. They are not all lazy. As a matter of fact this is the first time I have ever had a problem. Only this mail carrier, who gives all of us on the street everyone elses mail, which is something I can live with, but throwing my package out the window is unacceptable! And you are right, I would have apologized also. But she did not.Thanks, Chrissie

I know, sweetie. I quoted the incorrect person. ;-) I appreciate you not painting us all with the same brush, though I TOTALLY understand your disappointment with your local P.O at the moment.

I have been trying my best to keep Baldie and the other people's spirits up ( and mine) . I hope nobody slams me for copyright!!

-

I really feel like that baldie was mistreated and I really hope that she gets some justice out of all this since she was obviously done wrong-- And I am so glad that everybody has jumped in and tried to help in a lot of different kinds of ways. Excuse my grammar and syntax I haven't had my coffee yet and I am a redneck from the ghetto!! Wayne

ok I'm on a rural route too, and my post master comes to the door, rings my bell when a package is left on my porch furniture. She also comes to my door for pick up for my items I ship out. She knows when I'm home and I see her, I will walk out to her and save her the trip.... but she always goes the extra mile. Very sweet woman.

She told me she never leaves out anything that may get wet on the ground... she keeps rubber bands and plastic bags in her truck just in case!

Above and beyond I tell you, and this just blows my mind!!!!!!!!!!!

When you stop to think about it there are over 18,000 people on here. There might be one maybe 2 posts at most with people saying their eggs got broke in the mail. Maybe once a month where there really was a bad box that was totally smashed.

The main problem here is that this woman didn't only throw the box out of a moving SUV, she raced thru a circle drive that is in a duplex apartment complex and someone, adult or child could of been seriously hurt.

The next problem comes in when Chrissie was called a liar and had to go back home and bring the box of eggs in to prove that it was done recently. Her pic's are worth a 1000 words, those are fresh broke eggs as they were still juicey and not drying from setting at all.

The third problem comes in after she got the call back from the wonderful lady who was going to do something about it and must of as then, someone at her local Post office came on here went to the trouble of registering and had the nerve to again call her a liar, told her she should of lied to her child and to top that off also told her she should of blamed it on the lady who sent the eggs not sending enough. Called her parenting into ? and even went so far as to accuse her hubby of not paying enough attention to his wife.

I sure hope that when the head lady calls back (I really hope that she continued to watch this thread) and hears that this has happened then the heads will again roll at Chrissie's Post office.

But in the most part I want people to remember that with over 18,000 members that most don't have problems with the post office, and that this is a rare case.

A simple I am so sorry and it will not happen again would of avoided this whole thread. If it didn't come from the woman that threw the package it sure should of came from the supervisior, even if he/she didn't believe it happened.

Maybe you should make a video and post it on U tube. They should be ashamed and take immediate action.
