Title: Don't Believe the Hype
Product review: This book is the ultimate one trick pony. If the point of this book is to be an indictment of the bureaucracy and soul crushing nature of working at the post office, then, yeah, that's true. But it's not exactly a mystery as I'm sure we've all heard of "going postal." Maybe this book was the first to posit this theory that working at a post office is no good, I haven't really checked the history of that phenomenon. Nonetheless, the action is repetitive and the depiction of the protagonist is incredibly self-serving to the so-called nth degree. Basically, my beef is that I finished the book, asked myself "that's it?", and walked away with no greater understanding of anything. Oh yeah, I guess I thought working at the post office sucks, but, in actuality, it REALLY sucks.
