We want to say thanks!
And make sure you do just that this Wednesday for National Postal Worker Day.
Of course, you'll want to thank your post women as well, I guess there weren't post women back when the Marvelettes wrote that song.
National Postal Workers Day a chance to show our appreciation for everything they do six days a week, rain or shine.
And on this special day, here's a little factoid that might impress your friends:
Back in 1913, the Postal Service started delivering packages up to 11 pounds.
You could send anything as long as it didn't weigh too much, and I mean anything, including children.
For the whopping price tag of 15 cents, little James Beagle, barely under the weight limit, was delivered to his grandma just a few miles away.
And believe it or not, that kind of thing actually happened for more than a year before the postmaster general decided it probably wasn't the best idea.
Good call, buddy.
There are about 490,000 postal workers across the country.
National Postal Worker Day was put together by some Seattle postal carriers in 1997.
