Your postal fees at work. Or not.

Recently a renewal notice appeared in my Post Office Box. I took the notice, wrote out a check, and took both to the clerk. The clerk tried to update the records to show that my Box rent was paid. The system wouldn't accept it. The clerk couldn't figure out what was wrong, so the Postmaster was summoned. It turns out that payments cannot be accepted until 30 days before the rental period is up! Huh? You gave me a bill, but won't let me pay it?!
