Dear US Postal Service

Hi There! Thanks for making sure my bills arrive every day. I noticed you’ve taken to including a bright pink “Important Notice” with my mail most days now. You know that one… the “Customer’s Responsibilities Regarding Snow Removal” sheer, that includes the following helpful picture about what we need to do:

Snow Removal

I think that’s great, and in an ideal world, we could all be happy. Unfortunately, that’s just not going to happen. Here’s an important notice for you about the realities of snow removal. I’ve included some helpful pictures so you can understand what exactly is going on:

Snow Reality

As you can see, it really doesn’t matter what I do at 10 in the morning, if you are going to show up at 4pm, after the snow plow has run through. My mailbox is going to be buried. Now, you can act annoyed and keep my mail, you can deal with the snow issue and deliver my mail anyway, or (my favorite idea) you can attach a little plow to the front of your truck, and kill two birds with one stone. But what you don’t need to do is give me any more of these stupid pink sheets.

Thanks!
Ron
