go go postal inspectors!

probably how my columbia house enrollment got "lost" too

What a stupid thing to steal and get busted for. What does anyone want with used rental dvds that are probably worth under $10 each?

You wouldn't believe what gets stolen in the post office. In the big processing plants, it is impossible to watch everything, so a ton of cards get slit open for money, gift cards, etc. I work for the post office, and at 50% of the people I work with would have been fired a dozen times over at any other job I ever had. Since you can't seem to get fired in the service, the dregs pull the whole organization down.

1250 X $10 = $12,500 not chump change

You know, I wondered about this. This is the second time I've seen a post about Mail Carrier theft (the other one was about a guy who was just too lazy to deliver packages, so just brought them home), and both times the postman was just suspended. Why not fired? I don't want these guys ever delivering mail again!

Now that's job security!

The guy who didn't deliver was in Canada, not the USPS I believe.

Why not arrested? It's called theft and they should go to jail!:mad:

With the union, you can't fire people. Many years ago a worker in an office about 15 minutes from mine killed his supervisor and then himself. This person was disturbed, everyone knew it. He was a terrible worker and constantly threatened and harrassed people. The union would not let him get fired, they were in fact appealing a write up they had given him the day he murdered. I work with a guy just like him, and no one would be surprised if he snapped, but every year when he has at least 1 major incident, he gets to keep his job.

I was one of the people who made the complaint to the postal inspectors in this case. I was very surprised when a postal inspector called me about my missing the dvds in the mail. I've since moved to another zipcode but Im glad they prosecuted and fired those people.

So, that's where my last moviesville.com order got to... :mad2:
