A guy went to the Post Office to apply for a job.

The interviewer asked him, 'Are you allergic to anything?'

He replied, 'Yes - caffeine.'

Have you ever been in the military service?'

'Yes,' he replied. 'I was in Iraq for two years.'

The interviewer said, 'That will give you 5 extra points toward employment.'

Then he asked, 'Are you disabled in any way?'

The guy said, 'Yes... an IED exploded near me and I lost both of my
testicles.'

The interviewer grimaced and then said, 'OK, You have enough points for
me to hire you right now. Our normal hours are from 8:00 A.M. to 4:00
P.M. You can start tomorrow at 10:00 - and plan on starting at 10:00
A.M. every day.'

The guy was puzzled and asks, 'If the work hours are from 8:00 A.M. to
4:00 P.M., why don't you want me here until 10:00 A.M.?'

'This is a government job,' the interviewer said. 'For the first two
hours, we just stand around drinking coffee and scratching our balls. No
point in you coming in for that.'

I know some people that work for the Gov't that would strongly disagree... though they don't work for the Postal Service, for sure

Mind you, seeing as it's a joke about the postal service, it's somewhat serendipitous that it also happens to be a repost
