Mail Man Get's Probation, My Admiration

Here's another poor bastard for you! Why don't you give thanks you aren't Steven Padgett, a North Carolina mailman who for years hadn't been delivering anyone's junk mail.
Good!

Poor guy couldn't keep up with the tight schedule the Postal Service made him keep so he started only delivering 1st and 2nd class mail. The rest was hidden in his garage or BURIED in his backyard. Whoa!

That's a lot of junk mail!!
He was facing 3 years in jail and a $250,000 fine but luckily he only got probation.



Um, 3 years in jail for not delivering junk mail? Really? What he should have gotten was some home baked cookies and a hug!
