When some people think of Georgia, they may think of southern hospitality. However, one local mail carrier is proving that wrong after sharing a shocking and threatening note that they received from one resident on their mail route, and it has the internet in a tizzy.
A local Georgia mail carrier shared the unsettling encounter online after receiving a letter addressed not even to them personally, but to “Post service AKA mailman or woman.” Inclusive, sure — “At least they’re inclusive,” as one commenter joked. However, one Reddit user claimed that the note had a vibe that was very much “the writings of a schizophrenic.“
According to the post, the note was basically a warning. Don’t you dare withhold my check. The resident claimed they had bills to pay and implied there’d be consequences if their mail didn’t arrive. Of course, anyone with a basic grasp of how the postal system works knows that the mail carrier isn’t running some shady side hustle holding checks hostage. But logic didn’t seem to be the driving force here.
Georgia Resident Sends Shocking Note To Their Mail Carrier
The handwriting itself was its own red flag. Each word was scrawled in uneven sizes, like the author was trying to make sure certain words screamed off the page. The overall effect was creepy, aggressive, and not exactly the kind of thing you want to open on a routine delivery route.
People online had thoughts. One person suggested an epic comeback move: “Would have put the note back in with the check in the mailbox. Only, draw a tic-tac-toe board with just one ‘x’ on the check envelope. Then write: your move, bi*** just below it.” Another chimed in with a much simpler solution: call management and the postal inspectors ASAP.
This Threat Isn’t Taken Lightly
This Georgia story doesn’t end in an all-out postal showdown. The carrier eventually delivered the check, meaning bills could be paid, tensions could simmer down, and maybe, just maybe, this resident can try a less threatening approach next time.
Still, as one Redditor summed up, “There is nothing saving this dumb customer.” If the goal was to make the mail carrier’s day more stressful, mission accomplished. But if the goal was to have a good relationship with the person who literally brings you your money? Georgia might be known for its peaches and southern hospitality, but even here, sometimes the mailbox holds more drama than a daytime soap.
