Bring on the folks at the MT talking about how their carriers are independent contractors. Yeah, right. And learn to spell! It makes perfect sense when traditional print news is under its greatest threat of all-time. "... equivelent there of." FTW!!!

A pretty blatant shakedown for gratuities.

His union doesn't require him to do any more work than his job detail describes.

I've had our Mail Tribune carrier back in to and damage my gate, back in to and knock over my garbage can spilling the contents in to a water filled ditch.
Neither time did they admit they did it. Our paper has not been delivered numerous times, the same with it being late. Now the new carrier won't or can't tie the plastic bag so we keep getting papers that are soaking wet and useless. We are just about to give up. But then our dog would be out of a job

You know if I received a note like that I would be cancelling my paper subscription.

In defense of this guy... These people are not not paid very much at all. If they were there wouldn't always be delivery jobs available. And I don't know how many people EXPECT the delivery guy to get out of his car and walk up to someones porch. The letter is poorly written but if someone expects someone else to do extra work for them every day They should pay for it. And why do we care if they can't spell?

From a handwriting analysis perspective on this, a couple things stand right out. How much energy of themselves someone is willing to exert is revealed by how they form their "t" crossings - it takes more energy to raise the pen higher and cross the "t" at a higher location, and a "long" crossing stroke takes more energy than a short one. This guy can barely make the effort to make much of a "t" crossing stroke at all, and it's quite low as well - in simple terms, this guy doesn't exert himself much at much of anything. Now look at the size of his letters when he writes "mail tribune", as opposed to the sizes of letters in his other words. When something is important to someone, they write those letters larger. The words "mail tribune" aren't very important to this writer at all, they're practically the smallest letters on the page (he can't be bothered to capitalize them, either). His own name is more important, his emphasis on ANY, even "gratuity" is written larger, and "Thank you" he's pretty proud of, but not the company he works for. I wouldn't want to hire this guy, based on his handwriting alone.

Most of what you deduced could have been assumed anyway simply by the nature of the job I'm a little skeptical of your skill at this but you are probably right with some or even most of your thoughts using known handwriting clues.

Also as far as the importance of the customer being 98 years old. It's very possible this carrier has no idea of their age.

He's most likely an independent contractor. That's all part of the game. Sorry, go elsewhere to look for union boogiemen to blame. (And now the thread goes sideways.) That's because the man is trying to keep them down. If they were paid a living wage he wouldn't need the tips. Quote:October 28, 2005power to the people!

Could have been worded differently, to be more compassionate and explain things better, but I understand the sentiment. And he left his phone number along with a request to call with any questions or comments.
On the subject of handwriting analysis: bunkum.

The FBI and other criminologists will beg to differ this one with you. I myself can generally pick lies out of a written statement, just for example. It's not all that hard to do, either.

Gee, I wonder which one of Santa's reindeer peed in this guy's cornflakes? Talk about not being in the holiday spirit. I see a lump of coal in his future.
