We learned something new ;-)

My friend and I were talking about the parcels that we receive in the mail. I said to my friend: "Our postman leaves our parcels in the shed in the back yard when we aren't home. I don't understand why he does that, they usually just leave a note saying that we have to pick up the parcel at the post office. It is so strange that he leaves the parcels in the yard" Then my friend laughed and he said: "Of course he leaves the parcels in your yard when you aren't home. You have that "Flex" sticker on the door and that is a message to the postman. It tells him that he is allowed to leave your parcels at your house when you aren't home" My husband and I laughed when we discovered the truth. We have been living in this house for two years and we have seen the sticker on the door each time we open and close the door, but we never knew that the word "Flex" on the sticker meant anything. The previous owner left the sticker on the door when she moved, but we never imagined that it was a message to the postman Which new things have you learned this year?

ahaha yeah sounds really funny but thanks to your friend that you have discovered that thing. Good thing that you didn't make consultation on the postman on why he lives you mail on the yard coz you'll be embarrassed. Well as of this year i haven't knew any new things, i am looking forward to have it anyway. :)

Yes, it is a good thing that we didn't ask the postman why he left the parcels in the yard, he would probably have laughed at us if we had said something Usually the postmen aren't allowed to leave parcels when we aren't there and we have to pick them up at the postoffice instead and that was the reason why I thought that it was so strange that our postman just left the parcels in the yard. It never occurred to us that he simply followed the instructions on the door, but thanks to my friend we managed to solve the mystery

Well if i am at your shoe, i would really ask the postman on why he keeps on leaving the mails on the yard,since i wanted to have my things protected and secure. Good thing i am not on your situation coz it will surely be an embarrassing moment. ahaha

Fortunately we never had any problems when he left the parcels in the shed in the yard. If you could see the parcels from the street I would be worried about theft, but the shed is behind the house and no one can see it from the street.

Glad you haven't had the chance to ask the post man that question. :) That's a funny experience and that's something new to me too. Well for this year, I hope to learn new things too. The year just started and nothing much has happened to me yet. I wanna learn a new language, Japanese or Korean maybe so I hope I'd be able to accomplish it before the year end. Have a great day and happy myLotting! :)

Yes, I am happy that I didn't say anything to the postman, he would probably have laughed. We have seen the sticker so many times, but we never never imagined that it was a message to the postman because we have never seen that kind of stickers before. Fortunately our friend was able to solve the mystery Good luck with the new language. I have learned some Japanese in the past, but I am only a beginner. I don't know the Korean language at all, I have only heard some sentences in the Korean movies that I have seen.
