Mail Room Puns

"Well I think you should be using the female room"

Every time someone says he word: "Redundancy" my dad says: The Department of Redundancy Department.

When I was a young kid, I'd say "HI!" to my Dad in the morning, and he'd always respond, " 'lo! "

I didn't get it until I was about 11.

he would also keep boxes and cardboard tubes (for mailing/keeping large posters/mailers) in his workroom for all kinds of things. When we were cleaning out the room, we found all these cardboard tubes that said "MT" on them. When we opened them up, there was nothing inside. We should have known he had them properly labeled......"MT" = "empty".

Our receptionist collected the mail, and I overheard the following conversation.

Receptionist: Here's a catalog about clocks.. does anyone want to read it?

Boss: What? That'd be such a waste of time.

Boss then proceeded to smile as I bust out laughing in the other room.

My family is on the mailing list for the National Arbor Day Foundation, so we get begging letters from time to time.

In the most recent one, there was an additional flier that had the phrase "Hurry! You don't want to leave behind all the great benefits of being a member of the Arbor Day Society!"

I was immediately disappointed that they didn't say "You don't want to LEAF behind..." I then got SUPER excited to tell this joke to my wife who was in the other room, so I run in to tell her the joke, but by that point, I was so jazzed about the leaf pun, I completely forgot the rest of the phrase, so all I could babble out was (and this is literally what I said) "Something something LEAF! Something something something," all the while giggling like a madman. I have not heard the end of it.

I told my Dad that I'd be working in the mail-room of my campus.

Dad: "That's great! Is it going to be a lot of work"

Me: "No, it should be pretty easy"

Dad: "That's good. I wouldn't want you to go postal!"
