Postal Poetry

The U.S. Postal Service is eliminating so many postal-clerk positions that thousands of clerks will be reassigned as letter carriers, according to postings on Web sites targeted to postal employees. That has led one person with the screen name "Postal Poet" to post the following limerick on PostalNews:

Now clerks will become letter carriers
The unions will remove all the barriers
One question remaining
If they receive proper training
How much fat will they lose in their derrières
