Things that make you smile!
It has been a long road but the Mailmam is winning the battle. I am now the proud co-founder of The Roland Senior Dog Rescue Gang and our mission is to give senior dogs who are abandoned by their families at shelters or needing a home due to circumstances beyond the control of the owners, a home to live out the remaining years of their lives. We have taken in younger ones that have medical needs or behavioral problems and are trying to rehabilitate them and find them homes but some are just not adjusting to strangers and are biters. Sometimes they want to bite me if they don't like something I am doing. And the big thing is I have taken in a blue pit bull, he was a bonded partner with another mixed pit that is not much so pit. He was so sweet and sad looking that I could not leave him behind and I was right about him, he is a gentle soul. He has gained weight and I talk to him and tell him this does not mean that I can trust pit bulls now. I also tell him I know he could tear me to pieces if he wanted to so I hope he doesn't want to. I have lost weight and I am 63, people tell me I am tiny because I am short too, I was really strong when I carried mail and worked out with weights. I had a walking route in an older neighbourhood that had steps up to the yard then steps up to the porch. I was in great shape, that's why the pit bulls didn't kill me. Also why God let me get attacked and put those dangerous dogs ( due to horrible owners ) down, and not and old lady or man or child that were always on those streets. We have 32 dogs all sizes. Our Facebook Page is The Roland Senior Dog Rescue Gang and our web site is www.rolandrescuegang.com. More to come!!

The Utube lost video ???
It was so funny, it may have been real! It was a 911 call to the police saying that the mail carrier was on the floor and needed medical help. In the background there is heard a loud thump of a frying pan hitting him on the head. This thumping goes on through the whole call with moaning in the background. She tells the 911 operator that she just gave the mailman a lottery ticket for Christmas and he won $10,000. She is trying to beat him to death so she can keep the ticket. Moral of the story: If someone gives you a lottery ticket for a gift, don't scratch it in front of them.

And so on!!
Neighbors Dog, Pit Bull attacked my grandson and our dog. We shot the dog on our property and he did not have up to date Rabies vaccination. So they had to send the dogs head to Tallahassee to be tested for rabies. Crazy neighbor was pissed off and started throwing empty bottles at our garbage cans. He did not even seem concerned about the child or the injured dog. The dogs are victims of irresponsible owners. We live out in the country on 10 acres of land. We have six small dogs, four cats, ten chickens, and one rooster. I having been attacked by pit bull and it causing PTSD this affects me in many ways. Fear of leaving the house, can't walk out in the dirt road, worried his other pit bull will get ou again and kill my dogs in our yard. Our dogs stay in the fence. The good news!! He has moved !! I still have to watch for packs of wild dogs roaming loose in the area but the jerk left and took his other pit bull. So, this Mailmam is happy about that. Hope nice people move in if anyone does. The Mobile home belonged to his mother and it was brand new when they put it here about 4 years ago. It could burn down or something! Gail

Damn that guy who created that Postal Creed. Rain, snow, sleet, dark of
night, it is fricking cold. I'd like to wring his neck on those cold mornings and rainy days. Nothing stays dry even the rain gear gets so soaked the mail gets wet. The mailbag fills with water when you open and close it and of course the water does not drain because the bag is waterproof. Thus again wet mail. There are capes that keep this from happening but you can't afford to spend your uniform allowance on a cape when the over charge you for the shoes, shirts and pants. Your lucky to afford a $350 rainsuit, a $180 Jacket and gloves. And that's years ago. Don't know what the prices are now days.

Attack Of the Mailmam
The trouble with working at the post office is that they give you impossible orders. One fine day I delivered my route and they wanted me to deliver packages on someone else's route. I had five packages left and I called in and asked if they wanted me to come back on time or deliver the packages and go into overtime. The station manager answered the phone and said she wanted me to deliver the packages and be back on time. This was totally impossible to do as I had explained but they say such idiotic things. So, I stayed out and delivered the packages and was 20 minutes late getting back. She never said anything. What are you supposed to do when people are so ignorant? You can not do two things at once, it's an either or question. I guess she just did not want to make a decision but leave it up to me. Why is she there and why did I waste my time calling her? We weren't supposed to take cell phones but I took mine for emergencies. You can't always find a phone or a bathroom on your route. Especially on a walking route which I had but used a truck a lot of times.
