Tony the mail man petition?
|
Howdy neighbors -
Dont' know if you all love and rely on Tony the mail man like I do, but you may have noticed he was assigned a different route. Saw him today and he's helping out on his new route... but isn't permanently assigned to 11th ST. Tony said someone had a petition going got get him back on our block. If so, I'd love to sign it and get help. If not, I'd love to start a movement to get him back. If anyone knows how to keep the best mail carrier we've had, please let me know! Tony rules!

Martha, i'd love to hear more?about why you like him so much. All i know is i have yet to experience a mailman for our block who was really good. I'd? say poor-adequate has been my experience to date. But never sure who they are either.

Hey Folks -?

In the four years we've lived here, the mail service was terrible from the get go -- we never had the same carrier. ?Carriers were often late into the evening delivering mail, delivering wrong mail etc. ?When we first moved here, we even had several packages stolen (we were getting married so got lots and lots of packages daily). ?
Once Tony started on our route, about 1.5 years ago, our mail, just our mail, started coming (we often had the old owner's mail despite their address change). ?It came every day around 1 - 2pm. ?And, if there was a package for us, he would ring the doorbell. ?If I wasn't home, he'd leave it under the stairs out of sight. ?
I also mail alot of packages from my house with flat rate stamps for my business, so I often put mail out to be picked up. ?Tony never misses it. ? I can always tell when Tony is on vacation or off for the day -- or placed on another route. ?
From what I learned conversation with all the mail carriers, and I've talked to them all, no one likes our route - it's one of the longest. Before Tony started, we would never have the same carrier for more than a week, or a few days even. ?For awhile they broke it up differently, by block. ?About 2 months ago, Tony was reassigned to 10th Street and beyond, but not on our route. ?
To me, having the same carrier every day is huge. ?And, from my daily perspective seems to have worked very well. I am surprised others haven't had the same experience with Tony. ?He knows my routine, that I work in the basement, where to find me, and that the packages I send are safe (if you consider bluegrass non-toxic). ?Because I?work from home, I am very familiar with most of the delivery folks from UPS, Fed EX and the USPS.
Now, Tony has been off the route for the past several weeks - hence the late night deliveries. ?Sherman (our sort of new carrier who's now been assigend help) ?delivers later as he tackles the route differently. ?And he hasn't been picking up my stamped letters or packages. ?Sherman seems like a nice fellow, but Tony told me that the route is too big for him, which is why Tony has been helping with the route the past two weeks. ?I was shocked when I found my mail yesterday afternoon!?
And, today I was thrilled when Tony rang the doorbell, and had a package for Sammy! And we always have kind words. ? Tony is the happiest mail carrier I've seen! Tony is thoughtful, careful, mindful, knows my routine and needs and makes sure my mail comes and goes. ?I really appreciate him. ?And hate that I'm getting whacky mail service again. That's why I like him so much! On Tue, Oct 18, 2011 at 3:46 PM, Jim Hall <jimhall1111@...> wrote:

Hey Elizabeth - Tony mentioned that someone on your side of the street had one going - I think there is an list serve for the east side over there -- are you guys on it? If so, can you put out a query? If not, I'll ask Tony who it is so I can reach out.

Lylla. Childress who I don't believe is on this list serve said to Tony that we should start a petition. I was with her at the time of this conversation. I don't think any action has been taken but Martha perhaps you want to take the lead or check in with Lylla who lives at 216? Best Elizabeth Sent from my Samsung Transform?
