Something Strange at the Douglasville Post Office

I stopped by to drop off some outgoing letters yesterday and they had a sign on the door that the "lobby" would close daily at 5pm during the week and 3pm on Saturday. You have to go into the lobby to use the mail drop. They have sealed up the outside drive up box so if you can't make it there before the lobby closes then you aren't mailing a letter. I've gotten used to dropping by late in the evening after I pay bills and such since I don't want to put outgoing mail in my mailbox.

I don't know if this is going on at other post offices but is pretty strange behavior. All I can think is that they might have had some people in later in the evening tearing stuff up or trying to fish mail out of the drop box. This also means that people who have mail boxes there aren't going to be able to get in to check their mail after hours.

Your USPS at work.
Lots of homeless people in that area!

Likely, a few bad seeds make it hard on everyone else.....
 
I didn't know the USPS served third world countries like Douglasville...
It is a **** hole! Did you hear about the Douglas County cop who stopped to go for erratic driving on Friday? He had a dead person in the car with him and he wrote him a ticket and let him go.
