Don't know about the microwaves, but a problem I see from time to time is at the mail stations. Some of those boxes are pretty high and seemed to be assigned at random. There've been several times I've offered to take the mail out of a box where the owner is barely tall enough to get the key in the lock, or has a physical condition that limits how high he or she can reach. Such an offer is always appreciated.
Can people request another box, or do the boxes just come with the house--no changes allowed?
