As a mailman, I am always doing my utmost to ensure that I don't leave a negative impression with the people I deliver to. It causes some moderate anxiety to always have to be in 'on' mode, always careful not to draw attention to myself by maybe saying something I shouldn't while trying to be sociable in the 30-45 seconds that I interact with whomsoever I am delivering to at any given moment, or careful not to drop a package in front of someone, or take too long with the signature pad when I've interrupted them at work. I've found that I can sleep easier at night by shifting the focus away from dwelling on how, although I may have done some of those things today, if I let myself imagine a world where those rules that I am betrothed to don't apply, how different my day to day would be. So I end up falling asleep imagining some absurd sort of BeamNG.drive - esque scenario of myself barreling into people, knocking them over, and throwing packages directly at them, and that they love me for it. Where all of the social faux-pas' of my job are nonexistent. It really takes the edge off to just let go. And in having written all of that and read it back to myself, I would be remiss not to agree with the reader here that I may have inadvertently uncovered the true spirit of what it means to "go postal."
