Yuletide Pity for the Mailman Who Delivers Santa
A Christmas essay notes some creatures deserve pity at Yuletide and argues the mailman, not Santa, bears the season’s true burden. It depicts a 30 pound mailsack, icy steps, barking dogs, and the mailman’s fatigue as he delivers amid the holiday rush. The piece urges readers to greet him with sympathy, not jokes about Santa.
