Baby stealth maker.

Hmmmm,,,,, You must have the Same Postman that works My area, to Date, He has been chased by 3 ANGRY Husbands,,,,I remember seeing the Postman arrive at the house 3 Doors away from me at 10 am,,,,yet I I NEVER Got my mail before 2 PM,,I NEVER Understood it,,,umtil I saw My Neighbor chasing him with a Shovel in his hand,,,,

I always chat with my mail person and build as much rapport as possible. I also give a nice gift card at christmas. :)

Lol i've always thought about doing this approach. I'll probably start making small talk and all that :boink:

Mine just wont stop asking what i keep getting in these packages from china. I always just make something up.

Everyone who says to butter up your mail man.. yes, 100% agreed. Mine has consumed several hundred gallons worth of my soda.. but it's a very small price to pay. He even asks if he wants me to have him come back later (when I have more packages ready). He's an all around good guy. My UPS driver on the other hand is about 2 more bitchings away from bringing out my murderous side.

And everyone pretty much has it right.. come up with any answer, as long as it's not "I sell on Amazon/Ebay." My God, you say stuff like that and you're begging to be in an hour long conversation.. did I say conversation? I meant free consultation. This is amplified tenfold if they see how well off you are. I always just say 'online sales'. The less interesting it sounds, the better. As if people are actually interested in whatever it is you do.. They're out for themselves and want you to write a handbook on how to be successful. It's like people at the gym that used to ask what my diet plan was. I would tell them about all the ice cream and donuts I eat. Same idea applies.

so this is an international thing with postman's .

I drive my stuff to post offices (plural) when shipping. Receiving I have many venues NOT including my home. Your mailman can rat you out or not but there is that post office manager that watches what comes into his building...they can open up boxes WITHOUT warrants and do!

Very good point about tipping your postman well. Also, as Hercules said, you dont want to mix homestead and business...a lot of business NEEDS a spot outside the home.

OMG

No wonder the postman have to wear protective gear now a days.

ha ha, its using the protective gear that got him in trouble in the first place

He got into more trouble NOT wearing protective gear.


:focus:

think we are talking different protective gear.

Well i hope he wasn't going bare back when he was caught by the husband , that would be dam right Irresponsible :nono:

Our post collector gets a tray of eggs every week - he likes us

It appears some here should have kept their day jobs!

Eggs?,,,Hmmmm,,,,How Many "Eggs" in this So-called "Tray"?

oh man, nothing beats home grown eggs. I can taste the difference between store bought eggs.

Oh just the normal 30 :lol:

He appreciates them and he saves me a lot of bother.

Gave him £20 at Christmas.

While writing that, I coined the term "eBay rapist" for my job description.

Rapist,Porn star,baby maker ,lesbian window cleaner...

i think some people spend to much time on internet :)

give yourselves a brake.

or a break even :lol:

30,,,WoW,,,What is that,,,an English "Dozen"?
