Well, I pay bills the old fashioned way…write a check and mail them out. Today I wrote 5 of them…leaving me with a ramen noodle diet until next week’s paycheck. So I walk towards the drop box (one of those normal blue USPS things) and a guy sort of sneaks up to it when I’m about 10 feet from it…and he’s just standing there swinging the door open and closed for like 3 minutes. After the 3rd swing (note: NOT the 3rd minute!) I say, “Excuse me, I have to mail my stuff!” He says: “Yeah, I see that.” And he keeps on going at a pace that is forming a line. Me: “What the hell are you doing anyway?” Him: “Just swinging the door.” So I wandered around for a minute or so…with my bills in hand. I came back, he was just finishing up. He knew I was pissed, but I refused to raise my voice at all. Me: “All done now?” Him: “Yup. All ready to go!” And he left. WTF was the point of that??? Fucking douchebag. :rolleyes: Post your “future Darwin nominees” stories, or comment on mine! ---

Maybe he was the federal USPS mail box door tester? ---

I should have mentioned that he was a wierd old guy…not wearing a uniform. button-down, half tucked, short sleeve shirt, cut-off shorts, and brown socks with sandals. It was actually hard to NOT notice this shit. lol ---

I was going to say maybe he has OCD, but by your description of his appearance it sounds like that’s probably not it. ---

He would have been moved from the box and my letters would have gone in. Then I would have said…ok…playtime can resume now. ---

You should have timed it right, and stuck your letters in as he was doing it… That would have been the skill move right there ---

OCD maybe. If he did it for a certain # of times, it might be a routine for him every day if he lives close by or something. BUT maybe he was just trying to annoy you 🙂 ---
