Going postal: This story is not what you expect Postal workers are under a ton of pressure, so it’s no wonder the expression “going postal” exists. But more often than not, they’re hardworking heroes. Take, for instance, the story of Fernando Garcia, a USPS mailman who saved someone’s life. Fernando was finishing his daily route when he heard a loud scream from a nearby house. He found a man bleeding on the ground with a chainsaw nearby and a deep wound in his arm. Using his own belt as a tourniquet, Fernando was able to slow the bleeding and get the man to safety. What’s more, he stayed with him until an ambulance arrived.
