Dad worked for the post office for 34 years as a mail carrier. So many people did this. Yeah this guys response was the same as dad's. It's like there is training or something for this event.

Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor entitled Karen, shall cause these intrepid carriers to give a flying fuck about what she wants.

Even if he had her fiancé's mail, he couldn't hand it to her, as it's not hers. Once he puts it in the mailbox, it's up to her if she wants to commit a felony by opening mail that is not hers.
EngorgedPhallus
People with lower reasoning abilities often make the same repeated demands, even after a simple denial. They don't have anything else than the script they've manufactured in their head, so when it doesn't go their way, they fall back on repeating. You see it with cops a lot when they make an unlawful demand and someone knows their rights. "Give me your id." "No, I'm not driving, you haven't accused me of a crime, and I don't need to ID myself." "Ok...well...but give me your ID..."
BerryBnuuy
almost thought you were going to say "I'm not driving, I'm traveling"

I've seen a lot of cop arresting karen videos (I commute a lot and I have therapy, watching other ppl be miserable fux gives me haterade) and one thing almost all of them do is ask like 80 times 'why am I being arrested?!' and being told, then just asking again and again, sometimes without even denying it. Or after literally throwing a punch at a cop then asking why they're arrested. Bitch you're lucky you didn't get -shot-.
WhatTheFrench
I went through some “difficult interaction” training & one of the tricks I learned there was to repeat myself. If I’m telling someone they’re trespassing and need to leave, for example, it’s best not to respond to any reasoning they throw at me, none of it matters and they need to go, now. It was an epiphany for me, it literally did not occur to me that I could just keep repeating demands to gtfo, I would get caught up trying to persuade people. I’m sure cops go through some similar training.
randomwalrus
The only training cops go through is "They are all out to get you, so be afraid, and kill them all first!"
WhatTheFrench
I’m not defending cops, they’re all bastards, I’m just saying in their specific case it can be deliberate training and choices rather than cognitive ability.
TheMagicOfTacoCatScience
I hope her fiancé saw/sees this, cuz that's a bullet he needs to dodge, lol.
seheim
He really doesn't need to see this. If this is *possible* then there are loaaaaadz of other red flags that he can feast on already.
PhailRaptor
Hate to break it to you, but if he's marrying her, he's red/green colorblind
WeirdComments
Yeah, what people are not understanding from this video is, she wants his mail because she wants to see who he writes to and what he said. She's going through his stuff. This is a psychopath, right here.
Columbus43219
I'm doubting that's true anyway. He put something in the mail that she doesn't want to go to the recipient. He cold be a land lord, a Lawyer, an ex, anything really.

EternallyIgnorant
While it sucks that any mail carrier would have to deal with this shit, im glad he was clearly well equipped to handle it. Like he looks like hes finding it funny, and not overly bothered, and watching it, he comes off respectful and professional dealing with this insane lady. Someone else could have justly insulted her thus risking their job, or been physically smaller than her and felt more threatened... Like im sure it was annoying but if he came across his face on the internet...
EternallyIgnorant
.. I feel like he would probably get a kick out of it, and if he were to comment anywhere saying iots him with photo proof or whatever he would get nothing but love. So in terms of non-consensual viral fame from this lady, he got off well.
ShinksAvoHazaar
Bullshit. I’m Greg Harrison’s fiancé. Now give me things that belong to him on the street because I said so.
seheim
Not just because she said so. Don't be unreasonable. She NEEDS them. There's a difference /s
Filanwizard
If she is lucky he will write her off as a Karen and go on with his day. If she is unlucky when he gets back in that van he calls into the office and reports it. At that point she may get a visit from the law enforcement you want to meet less than the FBI. Postal Inspectors.
MrStealUrMeme
If he was smart, he would report it. She's obviously recording it for a reason, and it's best to get ahead of the situation so USPS is aware and ready to respond.

When she reached to grab the mail, that has to have been a crime, right?

Heelcat70
"Because it's important."

She took out a restraining order against the guy. Then tried to intercept mailing to his last address, so he wouldn't get the summons & get arrested on a warrant for not showing up. This is a Tuesday where I'm from

If true, that’s damn shitty. And I’m inclined to believe it just based on the video.

Reidsb
She seems to believe that her fiances mail is in that stack of letters (it isn't), and then when she asks him to give her the fiances mail, he says no, go to his house to get it when its delivered. She seems to have decided that the ONLY possible explanation for her not having it is that he is refusing to deliver it. She gets mad because she's not getting her way.
Why she wants her fiances mail is not explained. Probably not a sane reason. The mail carrier has done nothing wrong.
TI99Kitty
And that's assuming she's telling the truth. It's just as likely the envelope contains something that she doesn't want the recipient to see, or it contains something valuable that either she wants for herself, or she doesn't want the recipient to have.

I had a neighbor a while back that ran down the street every few weeks SCREAMING at the mail carrier that he didn't deliver her mail that day and that he had to return at ONCE! and deliver it. So many times I had to hear this poor guy tell her she didn't have mail today, so there's nothing to deliver.
Myoron
Man I wish I had days without mail. I think the last important mail I dealt with was my ballot, and before then was my ballot.

As a mail carrier, yeah ~90% is just garbage lol. There's definitely not any junk from that collection box, that's all outgoing mail probably has a lot of checks.

Razade

realrealluckless
People like her are why some of the mail carriers in my area use sign language...
Only one of them is actually deaf, but it is apparently a hilariously effective way of both annoying a group of Karens in the area and getting them to shut up and go away...
cuttlefishsticks
My ASL is limited, but I know how to sign "I don't want to talk" and use it regularly on solicitors and it works a charm, plus I get the knowledge that I didn't lie at all and they were thwarted only by their own assumptions. (And if they ever do actually know ASL, I'm still covered.)
NKato
I want to meet these guys. I'm deaf myself and I'd love to hear their stories. (Lul, hear? Hear?)

FckleberryFarms
He has no way of knowing who they are. Even if she is who she says she is, that doesn't mean Greg whatever gave her permission to fuck with his mail - which is a federal crime. I'm glad he didn't give this cunt anybody's mail.
CoinedWatcher
She is trying to do something shady. If she had a legit reason to see his mail she could just wait at his house with him to get his mail. She is trying to do or find something with his mail without his knowledge. This is the exact situation why it is illegal to do what she is asking. It blows my mind how many people will argue against a rule for the specific reason it was created
TheGgreen100
Doesn't matter who they are. Even if it was Greg himself, he still wouldn't be given the mail. You put the mail in the box, absolutely nobody, not even you, can interfere with it it has been delivered.
sfrinlan
Yep. Mail goes in the box. Those are the rules, and it greatly simplifies everything.
Eli93
Even afterwards, in many countries it's a crime to open someone else's mail. It's obviously not normally prosecuted if you open the mail of someone close to you, but if he watches her open someone else's mail... I'd do it out of pettiness alone.

But now you have people doing stupid stuff specifically for the camera. Like "prank" videos, for example.
It also seems to make people more confident, since "I'm recording so I'll have proof if you retaliate against me" or "I'll have my followers go after you".
sfrinlan
Yeah. Anything where people are saying "People weren't like this in the past" is absolute nonsense in my book. Maybe certain things at certain times were more taboo and done in private only, but largely, I believe that people have been roughly this same way for as long as there have been people.

They used to give $50 gift cards to anybody who complained about an employee.
Didn't matter if it was true. No questions asked. No verification. Didn't even need to give a name. Just had to be able to give a general description and complain.
They don't do it anymore, but I firmly believe it gave rise to Karen and "I Don't Work Here Lady" type incidents

BerryBnuuy
At least she won't be dealing with the Pinkertons. They're not just the bad guys on RDR2, they're an actual real entity that existed then and still exists and is still the bad guys. The FBI was largely formed because the feds got sick of their jackbooted and underhanded tactics and banned them from ever working for a government agency again.
Dafodarian
"Fun" fact, Wizards of the Coast sic the Pinkertons on people over D&D stuff.
PTKrieg
Was it D&D stuff too? I know they sent goons to someone's house for unintentionally getting a Magic set before street date, but I've not heard of a D&D related incident.
Dafodarian
You know, you're quite right. I misremembered that one; conflated that incident with their regular D&D scandals, but as far as I know they haven't -actually- set the Pinkertons on D&D issues. Yay?
PTKrieg
Definitely an easy mistake to make; Hasbro has been indulging in peak rent seeking and corporate shenanigans, and it can be hard to keep track of what they're screwing with this week.

They currently operate as Securitas AB.

I'd gotten job offers from Securitas but looking at what former employees have to say, it sounds like a shit company to work for. Didn't know they own the Pinkertons, but I looked it up and apparently they do
LV1BlueSlime
I work at a highrise and the company uses them for the front desk and the real problem they have is hiring people who show up. I've worked many doubles because whoever was supposed to be here never showed up and even when they do they suck.

I heard tell of one of these slick lawyers with ads that say they'll defend you from ANY government agency - FBI, IRS, ATF, DEA.... someone got in trouble with stealing mail and was being investigated by the USPIS and called the lawyer up - they heard who was involved and just hung up. THAT is how serious the US post office is - they are the ONLY government agency NAMED IN THE US CONSTITUTION. Their function is of tantamount importance; they do NOT fuck around.

I've heard stories of people going to prison for several years because they pocketed PENNIES that they found on the floor inside of a USPS facility.

When I briefly worked for USPS, I was told that if you saw change on the ground, you were to leave it there and report it to the post master, who was authorized to remove it. If they were unavailable, the money was to be left there for as long as it took them to get back. Days if necessary. Not sure if that was 100% accurate, but I bought into it.
