That reminds me of my mail carrier run in. Way before digital and IP cameras were a consumer thing...
I got a call from a neighbor telling me she thought the mail lady wen't 'postal' on my trash can. I called the local post office, and spoke with the postmaster there. I asked her if it was possible that her carrier ran over my can. She said the carrier was in and asked if I wanted to talk to her... I declined. The post master put me on hold, and when she returned, she said "your carrier said she did not hit any mailboxes". I then asked for the postmaster's email address and sent her the link above. First words out of the carrier's mouth after being confronted with the video was "I want my union rep." The postmaster transferred her out of her office - not because of what she did to my can, but because she lied to her.
It's a tough job, and they face a lot of pressure. Still, there's no telling what's behind (or in) the can. A kid? An animal? Something of value? One of my neighbors suggested setting up my trashcan, but fill it to the brim with concrete - rather than call to report it. That would have been fun to watch.
FWIW, my can was on the opposite side of the driveway, and not on the street when I left it full that morning. Trash crews emptied it and left it in front of the box.
