Mailman took change off my front porch

[ QUOTE ]
Of course it's stealing. Like you said, if picking up the change is not stealing then taking your patio furniture is not stealing either, and I don't think anybody would argue that the latter is not theft. If I had noticed and was in a playful/caring mood, I would put out a larger amount of change tomorrow - maybe double - and see if he takes it and keep doubling it until he stops.

That would be the most expensive experiment in anything in history.

Nope 1776-The birth of the U.S.-most expensive experiment ever.

Maybe he thought it was a tip? You know, like maybe he thinks its standard practice to get tipped for doing his job!

What do you think I should do about it(if anything)?

I think you should report it to the boss at your local Post Office, if only to see what happens.

Do it for OOT, we want to see this through to the end. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Yes, it is stealing, but - do you want to report him to the post office and have the chance of him and his friends at the post office funking up your mail?

Everyone knows the post office is one of the worst jobs in the universe and only room temperature IQ people would want to work there, so take that into account when worrying over your .75 cents. Would you be mad at a monkey if it took a banana off your porch that you accidently left there - this is EXACTLY the same situation.

I'm just surprised the guy wasn't more artful. He could have "accidentally" dropped some mail on your porch, and scooped the coinage up while picking the mail up.

Coat some change in a slow-acting but deadly poison with chronic effects, leave the deadly dimes lying about on your porch, then blackmail the mailman into re-routing all expensive-looking packages to an anonymous drop point in an out-of-town storage facility in exchange for regular doses of the antidote.
