postal service

My new mailman does things differently than my old one.

1. He parks his truck in front of my house instead of across the street when he goes to walk around the neighborhood delivering mail. This always makes me think he has a big package for me.

2. He is always on his cell phone. I have never seen him NOT on his cell phone. This makes me wonder: Is he allowed to do that? Who does he talk to all day? How many minutes does he have on his plan? Does his hand get tired from holding his phone all the time? Is he gonna get cancer sooner than the rest of us?

Maybe he's talking to other postmen?
