A Great Day At The Post Office

On a cold muggy day

Monday’s Post Office Visit

I had quite the surprise yesterday. I had to go by the local post office, which is usually quite busy. So, I was ready to stand in line and watch the show that was inevitably going to happen in front of me.

The last time I was at the P.O., there was quite a disturbance. This lady had a box she needed some help with weighing and sending off. The Postal worker helped her, and everything looked good. However, there was an issue with taping the box and filling out a proper mailing label. No problem.

When you are finished, the postal worker said, just come back to my window. The lady did. Among the jeers of another lady, she said, “you broke into line.” After a heated debate between the two ladies, the line cleared.

Monday Post Office Blues

So, this past Monday, I had no idea what I was walking into. It was a rainy, muggy day, and my hopes were that the rain would keep a few people home. To my surprise, it did. In fact, the post office even looked closed for a lack of cars in the parking lot.
