"Hi little girl, what do you want to be when you grow up?"
"You want to do what, inspect mail, in Washington, isn't that dangerous?"
I have to wonder how people get that job and why. It must be an "entry level" job, a trainee job, "an envelope poison checker," in a separate building, way out of town. Then, if you live through it for a year or two, then you move to another building, in town, but, no Hazardous Duty pay, you have to take a pay cut, but you don't care. They will, however, pay for a shrink to help you resolve those anxiety attacks.
An odd coincidence, all of the "poison checkers" are Republicans.
Some "graduates" of the "poison checker" program go on to "bomb squad" training, and a few have become "special black opp" trainees.
An anonymous department head was quoted as saying, "A few have made it, we are not allowed to give out statistics, but by golly, a couple of years of spine tingling anxiety just gets you ready for most anything. Old Charley "Oops" Parkinson, after a brief stay in a rehab facility, became a member of the presidential security staff, I think, appointed by Boehner, I think it was."
