The USPS does suck. Unfortunately, the sense of entitlement of these government employees is sickening. I did not realize this was a problem with greek houses but it is not the person, it is the address. 123 Main St is zoned as a business regardless that 30 men live in it so the inflexible gov't employees look at it that way. There does not seem to be any special handling or help from them.

I just moved to a new town. The post office here is a bunch of morons - the left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. They require new residents to put up a street located rural mailbox within 30 days. They keep holding my mail even though I've called no less than 6 times to let them know they are counting from the wrong day. They are counting from when we moved in but we did not close on the house until 2 weeks ago. I couldn't put up a mailbox b/c I did not OWN the house yet. I got in and explain to three people and nothing gets resolved.

I empathize with out undergraduates!

Ugh - this entire thread gives new meaning to GOING POSTAL!!!!
