Did you know that law requires companies to send you mail? It is true, for instance Federal Regulation of banks, credit cards, stock market, insurance companies, health car companies and government notification are often required to be sent out. Yet if all the post offices in let?s just say New Orleans are fully submerged or are going to be torn down, this does not relieve the companies of their obligation under laws, rules and regulations to hold that mail until a later date. In fact they are to send it out, whether or not the post office actually still exists. Meaning the mail has to go somewhere? Guess where? Well much of it ends up in large distribution centers, which quite frankly ran out of space the third day. Now all that mail is piling up and some is being sent back. Return to sender, address underwater?
It is not as if you could get to your mail if you could find where it was backed up at. In fact if you have a check in the mail, well forget it. Indeed, some of the mail for certain zip codes is not even being accepted if you try and mail a package or any sort of item other than a pre-stamped letter, which will not get their anyway.
We all know the saying from the Pony Express Days; the mail must go on? But no one ever figured on mailing a letter to Atlantis or perhaps a modern day city under water. Something to think on next time you are waiting for the mail. Oh, that check might be in the mail floating out there somewhere? Think on this.
