FOX13: An Ohio man is pondering what to do with the 55,000 duplicate statements addressed to his home by a student loan company.
Dan Cain said he was suspicious when a postal worker in Twinsburg, Ohio, told him recently that his mail wouldn’t fit through the front door of the office. When Cain drove his truck around to the back of the building, he found a postal worker wheeling out two large bins of letters, WOIO-TV reported.
It turned out that there were a total of 79 bins of the letters, and it took Cain two trips to deliver them to the garage of his family’s home in the city roughly 25 miles (40 kilometers) southeast of Cleveland. Keep reading

Sounds like my average Tuesday when the local grocery and fast food flyers show up. Always feel sorry for the carrier that day.
Same company responsible for the Democratic Iowa caucus results
“This is a job for John Kasich’s Father !!”
Up here in the great white north, if it weren’t for coupon books and flyers from real estate agents Canada Post would probably go out of business.
And this is what happens when the government takes over an industry. And the invoices weren’t even right – you just can’t make up real life.
I wonder when you fact the cost of envelopes, paper and postage if more money was spent on that billing cycle than the cost of the student loan.
Breaking News!!!!
The Iowa Caucus results were just found in a Puerto Rican Warehouse..
110 reams of paper.
is it watermarked?
@Bobcat – Or in a car trunk in Duluth MN..
The Arizona Dept of Revenue has sent me a tax bill for $13.44 in regards to a company we managed that closed in 1999. Every 4 months. For 20 years.
It never changes, no interest is added, nada. I did try to end the mailed invoice, but it still comes.
The cost of sending this bill is enormous.
To me this one doesn’t pass the smell test. At some point somebody had to process that many bills being mailed… to the same address!
What am I missing here?
55 cents per envelope X 55,000 = $30,250.00
It takes a human to make a mistake.
It takes a computer to really Fuck Things Up!
Are there any prepayed returns on them? If so send it all back at them.
Write “return to sender” on them, send ’em back.
Provide me w/ a couple of bong hits and anchovie w/pineapple pizza and a case of beer and I will stuff all the prepaid return envelopes, oh, and reruns of last nights faux news Iowa coverage for the stuttering fools and idiots making excuses after their hype up of their wall to wall coverage, and popcorn for the best of the year comedy series, the road to Milwaukee DNC convention.
Ohio Man, Florida Man’s northern cousin.
That’s one way to keep USPS afloat
@ecp:
Get a stamp made, and stamp them return to sender.
