This is actually brilliant. I wish my mailman knew how to hide packages like this. Granted, I live in an apartment building, so there isn't really anywhere to hide giant packages, but I'm sure this mailman would find a way.

The fakeout envelope by the door is just the icing on the cake.

Salami is definitely the way to this St. Bernard's heart. Give him one taste, and he'll wait by the window for you forever.

This is exactly how I look when I'm waiting for my Amazon order to arrive. If only all Amazon orders came with salami sandwiches.

This is the most hardcore mailman— nay, person— I've ever seen. Mailmen don't get recognized for their hard work enough. I see you, mailmen. I see you.

This man deserves a very nice Christmas bonus. Not only did he deliver that package in what looks like four feet of snow, but he also made very sure that the package did not come in contact with the snow, even though it didn't fit in the mailbox.

That is some smart thinking.

I support the "Give the mailman some guava" initiative. Guava is delicious. This mailman delivers packages day in and day out. The least we could do to support him would be to feed him some tart green fruit.

He asked so nicely, too. I love this so much.

Oh, my goodness. He wanted the guavas for his pregnant wife. When your pregnant wife craves guava, you've got to get her those guavas by any means necessary.

She doesn't even care if they're not ripe yet. Not only is this guy a great mailman, he's also a great husband. He's going to be the best dad ever.
