the mail in jobs

[Ostap]

Hello to everybody.
I came across a comment under a White House Facebook post, which reads:
"When the mail in jobs came in after the report this is what we get. The report was incorrect because everyone called in sick on count day. The Press Secretary said so. It has to be true."

What does the mail in jobs mean?

I'm not entirely sure of the meaning but I'm pretty certain it should be "mail-in".

I am not at all sure what a mail-in job is. Could you post a link to that site?

Perhaps something went wrong when I was posting, it was supposed to be a link to the comment itself. Here it is:

Someone replied to him saying "try making sense when you spew".

I guess maybe he even meant "mail-in vote"?

You didn't mention that you found that on the comment page.

Apparently, as one poster noted, it's satire.

Are you sure you found that on the official White House Facebook page?

I'm still not sure what is meant by "mail in jobs" there. (You could ask that poster. You still can.)

Look up "spew" online.

Yes I did: "I came across a comment under a White House Facebook post."

Apparently, as one poster noted, it's satire.

But that was a comment to the original post, not the comment in question.

Are you sure you found that on the official White House Facebook page?

Of course, there's a blue tick next to the nickname there.

I would think so, but the sentence is incoherent and makes little sense.

Comments sections online are rarely places to find good English.
