Postal Letter

Why would postal workers go postal?

lol, why would you go postal over losing a postal job? OK I've heard some arguments that the work is well-paid, had benefits and is secure since its a government job, and when you get fire, it seems like you have lost control or are helpless, as there is no-one to dispute it to.. But still, it is a monotonous office day job where you are worked hard and lack any attaining of new skills. It's like a OK-pay dead end job. I don't see welfare agencies, nor teachers going on a murder rampage for losing their jobs. So it must be due to some social context at the time, or grudges at work or something. Still that doesn't explain why it was mainly carried out by postal workers, in a short time frame. Anybody have any insight to provide? It's the first time I've heard this saying, and so far have only done some basic wikipedia reading on it. No i do not plan to go postal, but I will if I don't get quality answers! Jokes Thanks

1. If you only knew, you work in a confined space for lots of years, make friends with the only people you will know, take no holidays because you have no outside activities...and then you're ousted because your so-called friends see a potential slot opening up. D*mn right, I'd go postal.
