webfact Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Postman fired after lost mail found at his homeBy Coconuts BangkokBANGKOK: -- Thailand Post, the organization known for folding, breaking, throwing and totally losing mail, fired a postman yesterday after a customer, who was sick of waiting for her mail, visited the postman’s home to find a bunch of undelivered packages.Facebook user Watchareeporn Sasawat shared a photo of the undelivered mail hidden at the home of Chantaburi’s local postman after she decided to go look for an EMS package she was supposed to receive nine days ago.Watchareeporn said her family knew the postman personally, so a relative went over to his house and found her package, along with a pile of other undelivered letters and packages.Full story: http://bangkok.coconuts.co/2015/05/08/postman-fired-after-lost-mail-found-his-home-- Coconuts Manila 2015-05-08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keestha Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 It is difficult to fill a vacancy for a postman, and often they end up hiring people who deliver shoddy work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trogers Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Well, we had problems when the postman rings twice, and in this case, he didn't ring at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loong Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I complained to the post office as we have had no mail since December. Before that we were lucky to get mail every other month. It's really annoying that we can lose track of bills because nearly all our mail goes missing. I think it no coincidence that a letter arrived yesterday. Not only that, it was actually delivered to our house instead of being left at the local shop. Seems that the post office does take action when they receive a complaint.

Thaddeus Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Thailand Post, the organization known for folding, breaking, throwing and totally losing mail. Exactly who`s expert opinion is this? It's probably the opinion of people who have received folded or broken items in the post, or not received a package they were expecting at all.

underbob Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Over a six month period I got none of the six items I bought online ...I complained to the boss & they were in my box the next morning the problem is that this happens every 6 months getting no or almost no mail they just seem to leave it somewhere for many months at a time & maybe you will forget about it ...in my case I had to buy all the items twice so when they showed up the next day they were useless to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seajae Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Thailand Post, the organization known for folding, breaking, throwing and totally losing mail. Exactly who`s expert opinion is this? visiting the local mail centre to pick up a package, I was sitting there watching them sort the packages & they were throwing them up to 4 metres into piles on the floor, they were simply too lazt to carry them and didnt care what was inside them so yes I can definitely say thet this is exactly how they sort their packages, Add to that 2 seperate visa cards went missing in the mail and the local PO told me that the workers are known to take them so they can sell them, even their bosses knows it happens but do nothing.
