CONIFER, Colo — On Wednesday morning, mail carriers came in early to the post office in Conifer to begin a 6:00 a.m. shift.
Someone in town must have seen that abnormally early mass departure of mail carriers because a rumor began to spread.
A U.S. Postal Service (USPS) representative said it's not true. In fact, it's just the opposite.
He said what people thought was a mass walkout was actually a group of mail carriers starting an early shift. In light of the holiday season and the increase in the number of deliveries, Conifer has its carriers working from dusk to dawn.

The storm was quite disruptive, especially combined with Thanksgiving. My sister in Arvada missed two days of mail and USPS was delivering to her on Sunday night at 7PM.
Her trash service was also suspended for a week.
