Why would you do this?
What the hell? First of all, why would I get TWO W2s from two different people who no longer live at this address-- wouldn't the PO be careful about forwarding that stuff?!-- and second, what do I do with these?
If you have their forwarding address, I'd write it on there and give it back to the mail carrier or drop it in a mailbox. If not, I think I'd write "return to sender" and "not at this address" and give it back to the mail carrier or drop it in a mailbox.
Ack! Small annoying biting blackish ants in basement. Send help. And boric acid.
I think it's the same type that are in my yard, and suspect they've come to hide under my laundry through the basement drain. Hate them. And now my arm hurts.
Oh thank GOD. I'm not going to this jackass party tonight, but may get drinks with a couple of other friends instead. Jackass party = "cohosted" by a girl I know, at someone else's house, literally 100+ yesses on the evite, none of whom I know, $5 cover charge, located in Brooklyn and only accessible by jackass trains this weekend. Seriously?
And if not, then just write "no longer at this address" on the envelope and put them back in the post. They should be returned to sender then.
If not, I think I'd write "return to sender" and "not at this address" and give it back to the mail carrier or drop it in a mailbox.
Thanks guys! It's dumb not to know how to deal with returning mail, but I had no idea if you could do that anymore.
Okay. NO. That's crazy, Jesse. No Jackhole party for you.
I'm watching a PBS show and it mentioned the Fantasyland Hotel which is in a MALL with a waterpark, ice rink, and roller coaster inside.
I'm strangely enchanted by this idea.
So I'm applying for a librarian job at the CBC, where I recently applied for a similar position, that I had an interview for, but didn't get. Do you think I have to make major changes to my cover letter, if it got me an interview the first time, or will the HR people look at it and say, "It's the same letter! How lazy!"

Portland is going to mean fleas, isn't it? Damn.

Nah. Not dumb. I don't live in a big city, but I don't have that rural (or what I think of as rural) sort of mail service where I can raise a flag on the box, and have the mail carrier take my outgoing mail.
When I've gotten the wrong person's mail, I've just written on the envelope and left it sticking out of my mail box, and either my mail carrier or the letter fairies have taken it away. That's at a single family house, though. I'm imagining you live in a big apartment building with those little locked boxes, and I don't know what you'd do either (save hauling your cookies to the post office) except stick it a U.S. mailbox. It's tricksy.

You can do that just by sticking the mail half in the box or slot. They'll take it when they drop off.

I wouldn't make major changes. Odds are they won't compare the letters. Just make sure you say something specific about this job that's different from the other one.
And I've had mail carriers not take the returned mail I've left either in my mailbox or on top of the mailboxes, but then I just toss it in a mailbox.
OK, now to get dressed and go out for a much more reasonable time.
