“Dear PoP,
Walked past the post office on 17th and T earlier tonight around 8pm and it was blocked of with police tape and heavy police presence. Walked by after dinner at 10:50 and still blocked off. Found out from TV cameraman a postal worker had been robbed and locked in the back of his truck around 6:30.”
Thanks to all who sent emails and tweets about this crazy incident. Another reader tweeted:
“Postal worker robbed and locked in truck for 20 minutes . Not hurt.”

NBC Washington reports:
“The worker was leaving the T Street Post Office at 14th and Wallach about 6:30 p.m. putting mail and the day’s proceeds in a postal truck when he was approached by a gunman. The gunman demanded the mail and money and locked the worker in the back of the truck.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.
You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.
It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
