Postal Worker Defecates in Yard. (Chris?)

Postal worker in deep doo-doo after using yard as toilet

Don Derfler says his mail carrier had something to deliver all right but what he left behind was nothing resembling mail.

Derfler was waiting for his babysitter when he saw his mailman acting odd at a neighbor’s house across the street. The postal worker then pulled down his pants.

That’s when Derfler starting snapping pictures. The pictures show the postal worker squatting near some bushes and pulling his pants up. Derfler even photographed what was left behind.

“We trust people like the postal service and meter readers and people of that nature,” said Derfler. “To come on to our property and to defecate – it’s just wrong.”

The post office is embarrassed.

“Immediately, the individual was removed from the workroom floor, and they were put on unpaid leave,” said Ron Anderson, with the U.S. Postal Service.

The post office hasn’t decided whether it will fire the worker. It still needs to complete its investigation into the matter.

“That is something we’ll have to find out,” Anderson said. “That’s a possibility. I don’t know what the final outcome will be.”

After a KATU News reporter showed Anderson the photographs of the worker, he said it was inappropriate behavior.

“Why an individual like this would ever make a decision to do something that is just beyond common sense and reason, I don’t have an explanation for this individual,” he said.

Derfler said he hopes it doesn’t take the post office long to reach a conclusion.

“I don’t know if this is a firing offense or not, but for me, it would be,” he said.

Two postal employees, who know the worker, said the man is embarrassed.

Within two blocks from where the incident occurred, there is a public park with porta potties and a store with a public bathroom. It is not known why he didn’t go there.

And he keeps his job

PORTLAND, Ore. - A mail carrier who was caught using a yard as his personal toilet will not be fired.

The incident happened last month at a home in southeast Portland and a neighbor, Don Derfler, captured the man in the act with his camera.

Derfler had been waiting for his babysitter when he saw his mailman acting odd at his neighbor's house across the street. The postal worker then pulled down his pants and that's when Derfler began snapping pictures.

"We trust people like the postal service and meter readers and people of that nature," Derfler told us when we interviewed him in April. "To come on to our property and to defecate - it's just wrong."

The incident was an embarrassment to the post office and the worker was immediately placed on unpaid leave. Now, a decision has been made to keep the worker but he will be transferred to a different route.

A spokesperson said the administrative action was taken based on a postal service investigation but he did not elaborate. He also did not say which route the mail carrier has been assigned to cover.
