I just noticed the notes last week, but, according to employees, they've been appearing for over a month now. They are hand-written on memo paper and TAPED to my newspaper stand; Little angry comments from an uphappy NY Times customer to the NY Times delivery guy. (Because, you know, there's only one paper boy in Fort Worth AND he checks my stand for his personal mail daily. )
The notes always include:
- The subscriber's home address
- Continued disappointment with failure to receive paper, despite subscription
- A sarcastic-cum-witty remark (i.e. "Am I going to have to help you deliver those papers?")
- The subscriber's name
- Decent punctuation
- An indication that the subscriber is sane
I've been throwing the notes away, but the next one I find (oh, there will be another), I think I'll post on http://www.passiveaggressivenotes.com/.

So pleased to see a shout out to my new favorite site to peruse while I should be working. Can't wait to see your submission there!
Absolutely hilarious! And am going to check out that site right now.
Where's the Blogger?
