National Postal Workers Day - July 1st

The postman, I was married to one. He loved his job and being a part of the community he served. He was also very involved with his union, he worked a full day as a carrier and then served his union members during the evening and weekends. You could say it was all consuming.

I was mailing a package the other day and the postal worker asked me the routine question “anything liquid, perishable, hazardous…” etc etc. I finally asked what I’d been thinking every time they ask that…. “If someone *was* trying to m@il something hazardous, would they actually own up to it?” The gentleman behind the counter smiled and said, “you’d be surprised” Well then!
