A POstable Ghost Story

*Dedicated to Liz Bell, Connie Wang, and Caroline Bird inspiring to write this haunted #POstables tale.*

It is three days before Halloween, a holiday that Oliver O'Toole despises he takes no pleasure in celebrating a holiday that promotes horror and mayhem. But to be honest, he did find happiness in seeing young ones running on trick or treating dressing up as pumpkins, Prince, or princesses. At least Oliver O'Toole admire people decorations of Halloween, but he was happy to at least walk into his office without no hint of Halloween spirit,

But that was before Ms. Shane McIenery enters DLO. Shane McIenery got up early to grab a big box full of Halloween decorations. She got to the DLO office before everyone else and began her mission is making this office into one creepy office.

One hour later

Norman and Rita walk into the DLO horrify to see the office covered with fake cobwebs, pumpkins, orange streamers, and skeleton replica right beside Oliver's coat rack.

Rita was shocked and kept saying,

"No, no, no, Shane, what you have done to the DLO."

"Oliver is not going to like this at all," Norman added to find a smiling pumpkin at him. Shane could help but show Norman the pumpkin does more than a smile but sing. Shane informed them,

"Oh, I put these pumpkins in all of your desks just press the nose, and the pumpkin sings the ghostbusters theme song."

Shane pushes the nose on Norman, and the spooky voice sings the ghostbusters song as the song plays Shane dances and twirls. She twirls so fast stumbles, but Oliver catches her fall but drops Norman's pumpkin on the floor that is still singing. Oliver says nothing as he places Shane back on her feet he picks up the pumpkin that stops singing by the time Oliver picks it up from the floor holds it up and demands to know from Ms. McIenery

"What is this? Ms. McIenery?"

Hesitant but sighed as she answered, "A singing pumpkin."

"I see," Oliver looks around and is horrified to his office. This place of postal professional covered with the decorations of Halloween, a holiday he despises, and what was worst to find a Skelton beside his coat rack.

"What have you done?!"

Shane didn't understand why he was upset.

"Oliver, have I done something wrong?" Shane asked.

"Wrong?!  Our place of postal professionalism into your horrid display of a holiday that takes pleasure in celebrating destruction and mayhem."

"Oliver, Halloween is just about that is it about fun and scaring people trick or treating bringing joy to children's faces by giving them candy." She looked at Norman and Rita for a bit of support, but Norman and Rita pretend to work and let her handle it.

"Oh come, guys, how can you hate Halloween? It is was my favorite holiday. I mean, you guys had to love trick or treating when you were young." Shane defending her actions

"Ms. McIenery; I am sorry for my overaction, and yes all of us here loved trick or treating but that was in the past, we have grown up since then, maybe you need to realize to the same. Now please, Ms. McIenery will be happy to help you clear these decorations out this office by tonight or ..."

"Or what, Oliver ?" Shane hissed facing him challenging his authority but Oliver maintaining that authority by adding,

"I will have your infraction, which means training on a weekend that you do not want."
