Postman won't use ring doorbell
My postie refuses to use the ring doorbell, he says the union has advised them not to use them, is this true?
What I've been doing is just using the motion notification to pick up when he comes to the door, however my door is currently boarded up, and he doesn't even come to the door now, he just marks the address as "inaccessible". I've tried picking up from my local delivery office but they just always say they've got nothing for me. Maddening!
Edit: Thank you for the responses, I believe I need "Mail Karen" flair applied to me.
Union thing is apparently true, so don't I have egg on my face. Also - I genuinely don't mind him not ringing the bell, just wondered if the union thing was true, but it is, so there we go.
The DO don't have my post because the postie hasn't got back with it yet.
I should also have specified I never expected him to wait for me with my post, just knock and move on and I'd catch up to him. But to be fair that would still be an inconvenience for him to have to stop again etc, so never mind.
I didn't know you could put a hold on your post, that's good to know. I'm going to put a temporary letterbox in the board 😅
For all those wondering - no I'm not rude to my postie, he's a nice bloke, and even if he weren't I know it's a bad idea to make an enemy out of the person who delivers your mail every day!
