Reminds me of our USPS carrier...*Drunken Al*.

We were at the end of his route, and the first house on the street. A couple of times a month, Al would put ALL the mail for our street in our mailbox ....and just skip the delivery. When I walked the dogs around the block, I’d drop the mail to folks. It was a local joke. Everyone covered for Al, b/c he was going through a rough divorce.

Small town stuff.

You ever see the Chevy Chase movie "Funny Farm"? They have a USPS guy (played marvelously by Kevin Conway) who does the same thing. Their home is at the end of the route, except in his situation (as I recall), he just speeds by and throws their mail out the truck. Throughout the movie Chevy Chase tries different ways to get him to stop...
