the U.S, Mail

My new mail person started on this route last fall I think. She is not doing a very good job, to say the least.
I used to get mail everyday , even  if it was junk mail or bills.  Now, I get mail maybe twice a week.
Perhaps she is trying to do me a favor editing what mail I should  get.  Who wants  junk mail and bills anyway?  One day I saw her 2 blocks from my house, it was a week that I had not gotten any mail yet.
She recognized me. She recognized me because I had complained to her, when she first started and i didn't get mail at all for  2 weeks.   When I finished complaining, her answer was  "oh, I thought you  moved".   Ummmm  WHAT??!#$%0&*%.  So I assured her I didn't move.  So when she saw me  a few weeks later and recognized me, as i was saying,  she  handed me a pile of mail. She said " here, I have some mail for  you ",   I never heard of a mailman / woman  doing that.  It's like I have the female  Newman.  "hello Newman"   from  Seinfeld.  On occasion, I am so happy to get mail, that I don't care that  she gave me my neighbor's mail  by  mistake.   I take what I can get.  Maybe i should have given her a   Xmas present.  I dunno.  I was thinking of mailing myself  10 letters a day , everyday ,,and seeing how many I get. Also put a note inside, in case my neighbors get my mail, " hey that's not your mail".  So  we will try that and see what happens.
