Citizen complaint of the day: Mail or trash, it's too hard to decide!

Mailbox right next to trashbox

A clarion call for the confused comes from a concerned citizen about the closeness of a trash receptacle to a mailbox on Beach Street in Chinatown:

People accidentally put mail into it and cannot get it back. Or dump trash into mail box. Please move it away from mail box.

Earlier:
Silver Line riders aren't trash.

Really? Even if you're illiterate or just plain stupid, it should be obvious which is which...

I could see if you were EXTREMELY distracted by something, drunk and/or high,severely mentally challenged, or just plain mentally ill and off your meds, and confusing the two boxes.

Easy to say until you do it yourself. I always worry that I'll drop my mail into the nearby trash can.

Reflexive actions are the ones that can get us into the most trouble.

The real complaint should be the graffiti on the mailbox.

People can't be so stupid to get the boxes confused.

the complainer is the mailman, who's sick and tired of fishing garbage out of the mailbox every day during pickup.
