Do you think it's rude or embarrassing for your friends to take the mail out of your box and hand it to you ?

I know they mean well, but it's an invasion of one's privacy for others to see incriminating mail from the IRS or your probation officer.......or if you're buying stocks and mutual funds,and you don't want to share that info with your friends,. No, I don't fall under these categories, but it's an example. Don't you think your friends or family members should leave your mail alone ?

even our mothers used to say go get me my purse. They didn't say go into my purse and get such and such out ;-)

It's kind of a strange gesture I think but I couldn't care less, unless they've opened it for me. The outside of an envelope doesn't indicate a thing. It could be an advertisement from a bank, a mass mailing or a neighborhood promotion for all they know. Anyway, nothing weird or horribly private ever arrives in my mail box.

I wouldn't have a problem with that, as long as they just handed it straight to me, and didn't look at it. Most of us don't have mail boxes here in the UK , we have a letter box, and the post just drops onto the doormat inside. If I was entering the doorway and there was post on the mat, I would probably pick it up and hand it to whoevers house it was, but I would definitely not look at the envelope, just hand it to them.

Yes, they pick it up for me right outside my door, b/c I'm afraid they glance at it before they hand it to me b/c it's going to take me a couple minutes to get to the door.

Ir depends upon which friend. This one gets my mail, but doesn't know how to read: https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=dog+getting+mail&&view=detail&mid=A2923932E2BC808334A0A2923932E2BC808334A0&FORM=VRDGAR
