    The boss of the post office would absolutely be tyrannical if they could lol. In fact they often are. “Going postal” is a whole thing.

    But generally, the system keeps them in check.

        I’m sure there’s been hundreds of studies on it, but it seems so obvious to anyone who knows any history that I don’t feel like looking them up. Literally every society in the history of humanity, it’s happened, as far as I’m aware. Power corrupts.
