When was the last time you heard of someone "going postal"?

Does this even happen anymore? Are the postal workers less stressed because their workload has diminished because of email and FedEx/UPS?


Will it become prolific again because the post office now has to deliver for Amazon?

I'll keep an eye open for it and I hope you will too!

Before companies didn't hire whackos. That left only the federal post office to find a job. Hence, why they had such crazy nut cases at work.

Now, there are way more whackos and in our PC culture, companies are heralded for hiring them.
So, it spreads out the lunacy to all walks of life.

I will go 2 or 3 days at a time without getting any mail, I am not sure if that is par for most people, but I don't know why postal workers would be so stressed, especially the ones who work at the post office.

On Saturdays, they open up from 9-2. If you get there exactly at 9 you will have to wait 10-15 mins for them to get everything up and running. If you get there at 1:45PM the screen is already down in front of the check out area. I assume it runs with the same lax attitude during the week.

But I have not heard of anyone gone postal lately. With that said, I have heard someone joking around with someone else and they said "if they don't let me take my vacation days in July I will go postal on these mother frickers.. lol"

No, because they fricking suck at it. I had 4 packages in 2 months go MIA from Amazon via USPS. frick the postal service. I call Amazon and tell them how much I hate the postal service everytime they use them to me.
