13 Things Your Mail Carrier Won’t Tell You

This is true. The post office is one of the (if not the only) government agencies that is 100% self-sufficient. They do not get tax dollars or money from the government. Whenever postage goes up, it's typically because the cost of technology used, gas, cost of benefits, or wages have gone up. Anyway, I just thought I would share this. I know my dad has told me several of these, but I didn't know if everyone was aware. |

Or during your two year hitch in the military you would've shown unusual promise and been hand-picked for a secret mission to kill bin Laden at his north Pakistan hideout, after which your success would have made you a legend in the top-secret special forces community and instead of working at the post office you'd now be traveling the world assassinating evildoers in their lairs in Belarus and Tajikistan and Myanmar, dining on monkey heads in remote jungle lairs and having torrid affairs with smoky-eyed spies posing as taxi drivers.

Looks like the exam is no longer required.

I can understand why they'd want to be pretty strict about it, though - people would undoubtedly take advantage of the system pretty badly if they didn't. |

14. They know when you're getting porn and dildos in your "discrete packaging" and they laugh and tell the others at the shop.

What if you wrote an Emily Dickinson poem on the alternator?

I ship items for work at least weekly that are non-regular shape. I can ship USPS for around $5, I had to use UPS around Christmas for the same items and it was $17 each.
In this case, USPS ftw and most of my clients receive their stuff next or 2nd day. |

Walk around in the rain, snow, and sleet and only make $22 an hour. Those poor, poor bastards.

I hate the Post Office here. Don't know where "going postal" came from. Sumbitches are open from 9-430. Oh, and they're closed for lunch from 1130-1230. So I have to take time off work if I ever need to go to the post office.
