We can do that?
Do I just take it to the post office?
It wouldn't surprise me if one slipped through, there are overrides on stuff that get rejected and USPS is a massive organization with millions of parcels moving at any given moment.
This idea came from people mailing wooden shims back to the credit card companies because it would increase the postage cost over the normal weight... Please don't do that though. Letters go through a Dr. Seuss Esque sorter system and the shims are too sturdy and sometimes get ripped out of the mail and shot across the facility...
This ... feels like you are telling me to go for it.
Feel free to stuff as much paper as you can fit, it's just wood, plastics and the like that are too rigid for the machines to handle sometimes. USPS gets money for return mailing, so it's a benfit to them as long as shims or pieces of plastic arent flying around the facility like a bullet.
No, this is fake. You can put whatever you want in the envelope and send it back, but they won't deliver a whole package. They only prepaid postage for a letter.
Of course if you send something dangerous/threatening you might get arrested.
I'ma print out a goatse and mail it to them.
You'd just be traumatizing some low level data entry employee.
If you work for the empire, you gonna see some shit
Even better, print some anti-empire propaganda.
Give the low-level employee some ideas to quit giving their life to the empire.
Pro-union literature
That is a Fight Club level idea. Radicalize the data entry workers.
The fight club idea was bombing a bunch of banks. This idea is mailing propaganda. These things are different.
People don't take those jobs as a choice.
USPS is using slave labor?!
Credit card companies are. USPS doesn't have data entry people who would open the package.
