Howard started with the USPS in 1965 as a carrier substitute, and after one year became regular atthe Mulberry Station. In 1975 he begin carrying his current route.
Supervisor Customer Service Oletha Duffy said, "People tell him that is amazing to be on a route for so long, but it is no big deal to him. He enjoys being a mail carrier and enjoys being around the customer he serves. "
"I have supervised Arthur Howard on and off since 2012, he has never called in sick. Arthur's co-workers tease him about sleeping in his uniform and sleeping in his car at the South Macon Station because he is always willing to work on his nonscheduled days and often breaks up his approved annual leave days to come in when requested."
