    the fact this nice woman wasn’t immediately terminated by the postal service for “getting involved, missing assigned work, and opening the service up to possible litigation” is the miracle here

      Weird take. When was the last time you came across a dog that had been bitten by a snake? This is just a heartwarming story, and your takeaway is that most people suck? Most people don’t find themselves in this situation

          Easier to get a strong visceral reaction from people from negative events than positive ones when you don’t know anyone involved. And negative events stay with people a lot longer emotionally, so it makes for a nice method to get attention.
