Postal Workers Are Heroes

Posted on Facebook 7 years ago: A true story that I was part of: I also worked undeliverable mail, or NIXIE, the official word. Once I received a post card to a guy and his girlfriend. It had no return address. The card said that she had been seeing another suitor and they are go get married unless she hears from him in so many days. The card was being returned to sender for additional postage, it had no postage at all on it. Return to what sender? It had no address on it. As a group effort, four or five of us chipped in enough change to buy one postage stamp so at least the guy would have a choice to get in touch with her or not.
