Why People Go Postal From an Inside Personal Perspective

For years, many pondered one question: Why do people go postal? In this first-hand account, a former United States Postal Service employee sheds light on a discussion that is far overdue. In Why People Go Postal: From An Inside Personal Perspective, Lola McGee maps out her detailed personal account of how being an employee of a prominent United States government agency ruined her life and health because of racist managers coupled with incompetence and institutionalized discrimination from the bottom to the top. Transparent in her story, McGee hopes her experiences will aid those who suffer at the hands of evil-spirited supervisors and discrimination in the workplace, by showing subtle ways in which one discriminates by race and gender. She only has one goal: to raise public awareness about the harsh treatment and intrinsic discrimination that takes place inside the United States Postal Service, and offering understanding why the phrase, "Don't make me go postal," was coined by the horrific behavior of postal employees pushed over the edge by pressure and maltreatment from upper management.
