Postal worker caught with thousands of letters

Fri Jul 14, 11:14 AM ET

BERLIN (Reuters) - A Berlin postal worker who was caught with more than several thousand undelivered letters in his basement has admitted he was overwhelmed by the job but insisted he planned to deliver them soon.

Police recently found 90 boxes of post stacked in his basement. The postal worker, 36, identified as Thomas H., told Bild newspaper Friday he was only temporarily storing the post at his house and friends would help with delivery.

"There were just too much and I couldn't deliver it all by myself," he told the newspaper. Police said some of the letters found had been postmarked as early as April. The postal worker faces disciplinary action.

From the headline, my first thought was, "doesn't this happen every day?"

It's like my son who would sneak candy and throw the wrappers behind his dresser instead of in the trash. We always found them and my only question was why he didn't throw them away - we would never have known. Shrug!

I told the power company that my check was in the mail, but they turned the power out on me anyway.
