BROOKSVILLE, Fla. – Homeowner Kent Berg showed ABC Action News how he maintains his yard as well as the right of way that borders the gravel road in front of his home.
Which explains why Berg took issue with the postal carrier turning around in the manicured grass in front of his house. He says he’s been asking the carrier for upwards of two years to stop turning around in the grass.
But this postal customer says his repeated requests fell on deaf ears and at one point he claims his postal worker actually yelled obscenities at him.
The dispute came to a head after Berg placed cinder blocks in his yard in order to block the mail carrier from turning around in front of his house.
He says that is when his mail stopped for 26 days.
A postal customer’s fight with the mail carrier leads to a standoff and no mail
The carrier was being a jerk. Get over it.
And yes, I am a carrier.
I sure wish the people that complain about things that postal workers do could for a week do our job to see how much crap there is to deal with. People think we just get up and walk all day. We are ordered to take shortcuts even it means walking and driving over peoples well manicured yards. I hate to do it but the Postal Service says it has to be done but then again they’re sitting on their asses
Only in Floriduh!
