As anyone who reads my site will know by now, I’m kind of running my own show at work. With a small office and a small budget, we don’t have the luxury of hiring people to do just one thing. Everyone multi-tasks, including me. And one of the tasks I do is to check on the mailboxes for our mail. We have one of those banks of commercial mailboxes downstairs in the office lobby so whoever goes downstairs usually checks in on the mail on their way up.
Last week, I was with my work partner on our way upstairs when we decided to check on our mail. To my horror, the whole lock fell out just as he opened the box! My first thought was “OMG! We are so going to get charged for destroying our mailbox!†Fortunately for us, the building manager was passing by and just laughed it off. He picked up a clip that had fallen off, and fixed the lock in a jiffy. Whew! You can bet we are more careful now when checking the mail. You never know when the mailboxes are going to fall apart on you!

Doncha just hate it when those huge banks of mailboxes get stuffed with junk flyers/leaflets/magazines instead of official mail? ;P
