The stupid just keeps pouring off of the wires tonight. A female mail carrier, drunk, breaks into a home and plops down on the kitchen floor to eat some leftover noodles?? You can't make this chit up. Too bad we don't have guvmint health care, yet. They'd probably just transfer her to the critical care ward to help reduce costs. She wasn't even fired on the spot. You watch, it'll be rehab and back to work delivering mail to your house. Help her out and keep some warm noodles on the porch for when she stumbles past. ha ha ha
MARION, Iowa (AP) -- Police in Marion and postal authorities are investigating the case of a mail carrier who was allegedly found drunk inside a residence while on the job. Police said the postal worker, 46, was charged with public intoxication Nov. 3 after she was found sitting on the kitchen floor of 95-year-old woman's house, eating leftover noodles from her refrigerator.
Police Lt. Steve Etzel said Tuesday that the woman apparently entered the home through an unlocked front door. He said she was in uniform and had mail and a mail-carrying bag with her.
The woman, a 17-year employee of the U.S. Postal Service, was taken to the Linn County Jail. Marion Postmaster Rick Leyendecker said the woman is currently on unpaid leave.


She was probably just lonely and hungry. It's really sad, actually.

Oh, please, she was a hungry drunk. And that's the problem, you can't get rid of these people once they get on the government parole. And now the government wants to take over the health care industry.
Do you people really want to turn over life and death issues to morons similar to this woman who works for the postal service? Do you?
