Today, I had to drop off my library book. I thought I'd dropped in into the library book drop, but I'd accidentally put it in the post office mail box. To get the book back, I had to explain this incident five times to three librarians, a mailman, and my sister who called me ridiculous. FML

Hahaha I'm the OP. The comments are hilarious! :) The post office mailbox and the library book drop aren't right next to each other. They are near each other, but far away enough to easily distinguish which one is which. One is blue and the other is grey, so my mistake is even more pathetic LOL.

It really seems none of you were on the same page.

FYL if the maildrop and book drop were next to each other. YDI if they weren't

Well if it was dropped in the libraries outgoing mail box I would figure who picks up the mail would realize the mistake and put it in the drop box...hope everything worked out well OP

There's a big bag inside post boxes. The post man doesn't go through the bag right there.

Was the title," Problem Solving For Dummies?"

Surely when the postman comes or whoever opens it comes they will notice it's a library book and put it into the correct box for you, they've probably seen it many times before.

Eh don't take it too hard, accidents happen all the time

I suppose it would have been worse to drop something embarrassing into the library slot. Instead of retrieving a book, you could have been mailing a paternity test or cremated animal remains! Explain that to a librarian. It will be ok OP.
