I figure it might be an advance copy of Obama’s Jobs Program.

Sounds like what happened down in a little Georgia town when a bottle of deer musk broke in a package being placed in a post box in the building. Janitorail staff tried to clean up with mop bucket and pinesol in the water.

Oh yeah! The pinesol sprad the musk without dissolving it, so it evaporated all the more over a larger area ... really yucky stuff. Cyclists should carry it to spray dogs and stray ‘knockers’.

It was grease! Good grief...they called in Hazmat crews, evacuated the building,hosed off the workers all because of grease. Trump may be right...this country has a death wish.
Tampa, Florida - The all-clear has been given and employees were allowed back inside Tampa’s main post office, after several workers became sick while handling some mail Monday morning.

Tampa Fire Rescue’s Hazardous Materials Team responded to the scene and evacuated the building’s first floor after three workers complained of sickness.
The postal service says it appears grease leaking from a package was the culprit, but offered no further details.
The post office is located at 3501 Bessie Coleman Boulevard, just off the approach to Tampa International Airport.

Well....there is more toxic waste to come from the clown in chief. We might all want to invest in personal hazmat suits.
