I see your point @sneakypete But, when I think of folks working at the post office, I think of the guys and gals ringing up stamps ---- so that tweet still makes me LOL

They are probably the postal employees see more than anyone else in this day of "Both parents need to have jobs to pay the bills".

I was a lettercarrier,and turned down opportunities to be a clerk. No way in HELL did I want to be trapped inside that building all day,when I could be out walking around and delivering mail. Yeah,I usually ended up driving a jeep instead of walking,but I preferred to walk if possible.

I even retired from the post office without ever having one steady route. I enjoyed walking one day on one route,and then driving a jeep the next day on another route. It kept me from getting bored.

Yeah,I can not only identify with that,I think I probably said something similar in the past.

All I know for a fact is that after 20+ years of not drinking ANY form of alcohol,I still sometimes have people,sometimes even people I don't know, make rude and angry comments about my past conduct.

Which results in me saying something like "Bleep you,MF. If you have something to say about anything I said or did,the time to say or do it was back then."

One guy did tell me after picking me up hitchiking back to the job after the company truck broke down that "The only reason I stopped to pick you up was because I didn't want you to tear the side of my van off."

I saw no reason whatsoever to say anything at that point. Sometimes when something is working for you,best to just let it roll. To this day I don't have the slightest clue to what I did that pissed him off.
