08/07/20 Grif.Net - I'm just Mailing In my Jokes Today

[Robert Griffin]

[Seriously, ordered a medical device from Miami on July 7^th. Postal tracking showed it shipped July 10^th and subsequent tracking over the weeks showed this 4”x8” box in New Jersey, Los Angeles, four different days in Denver and three times in Casper.  Finally delivered August 5^th after 29 days.  3-day priority delivery. Got me thinking I’d better laugh about it . . . ]

**Being a letter carrier is a mail-dominated profession.

 

**Some mail men are called ‘letter carriers’.  On Facebook I noticed my carrier calls himself a ‘high priced mail escort’.

 

**A carrier said it was so hot in his truck that two hobbits showed up and asked him where to throw the ring.

 

**If you have problems in your personal life, become a postal worker.  No personal life, so no problems.

 

**Told the postal clerk at the window that I thought 55 cents for a letter seemed fair.  5 cents for postage, 50 cents for storage fee.

 

**My carrier knows I write the grif.net blog and love humor.  She asked if I heard the one about the unstamped letter.  Then she added, ‘Never mind. You wouldn’t get it.’

 

**Of course, I know what makes telling a good postal joke.  It’s all in the delivery.
