Postal-ception

I am a postal worker. It’s my primary career while I work on my writing and, when the fancy takes me, learning a new trade skill. You’d think that when I’m off-duty, I’d avoid everything to do with the USPS.

But you’d be wrong, in a depressing but hilarious way.

Always back into your parking spot, people!

That is a computer game called “Lake”. It’s a postal worker simulator, and my God, it is so relaxing. I’m tempted to stream it while playing and go over points about delivery and the postal process during (I have some complaints about what the carrier does, but then again, I’m a Union man and she’s a computer character so I don’t know if I should defend her career) but really, I just like to drive around this tiny town with easy and simple routes.

It’s very calming, and I wonder if I have a problem.
