You've got mail 2.0

I posted previously about my mailbox moving further away from me.  You can check my blog post from a previous day. Feel free to use the search function on this blog.

There are some errors entirely not my fault since a long time ago.  For example, the previous owner/renter and family too lazy to change their address with the religious institution and post-secondary institution.  I've been throwing away their very regular but infrequent mails from those two institutions for years.  Looked like advertisements  (probably requesting for donations and self-promoting).  Two years ago, I finally decided to correct the error by writing on the mail and say "no such person" and putting it back in the community mailbox.  The mail still come but more irregularly now.

Today, the wrong address got put into my mail box at the community mail box so I decided to go to the post office and complaint.  I spoke loudly so the employee did not want to communicate with me because my speaking loudly is perceived by that employee and one other bystander as I am yelling at such employee.

If I could re-do my interaction, it will go something like this.

"Hi, so and so I see your name on the name tag." said I
In reality, I didn't read the name tag at all, I just immediately said what I needed to say as soon as he could speak to me.  I was the only one in line the office was quiet.

"How are you doing today?" said I pleasantly.

"Fine, thank you.  I am doing very well and yourself?" said person with the unread name tag.

"I am well. Thank you for asking. Lovely weather we have today."

"Yes, Yes"

"You have a moment"

"Of course"

"Well, so and so with the name tag, my mailbox in the community mailbox received two incorrect mails not meant to be delivered to my address."

"Oh?"

"Yes. Please make sure you write a proper report about this. I don't want to continually receive mail not meant for my mailbox.  Also please make a note that the mails appeared to have already been redirected once.  I do not work for your employer and I am not on contract with your employer so I don't know how to read this stuff.  Please make sure you take care of this accordingly.  Thank you, kind person with the name tag."

"Of course, of course. Don't worry about it, leave it to me."

In reality, I walked away after talking loudly to the employee and was falsely accused of yelling at him.  I would have agreed if they said I was yelling at the mail and not the employee.  Hopefully, the employee can write a proper report, he had plenty of time, there was no one after me.  The employee had all the time in the world to properly document the two returned mails.
