postal workers in the United States walk an average of 4 to 8 miles carrying a full load of letters and parcels, delivering them promptly to each of our doorsteps. About 490,000 postal employees in the United States are out each day to our homes and businesses. Regardless of the weather, postal employees provide all week long. The mail arrives even as the weather shifts between extreme heat and cold. The mail is delivered in the rain, sleet, and blizzards, as well.
Besides severe weather, dealing with strange parcels is also part of the job. The postal service began offering parcels up to a maximum of 11 pounds in 1913. A small child was the most surprising box to arrive for delivery. James Beagle was mailed to Barely under the weight limit. A postal employee delivered young Beagle to his grandmother just a few miles away, at a cost of 15 cents. This was just over a year. By then, the postmaster general had put in place rules prohibiting it.
