I used to work at a Pack and Ship Store. We would pack boxes and ship them (as you may have guessed) using DHL, UPS, or FedEx. It was a good job, we were never open late and I was friends with all the guys there. However, when dealing with the public every second of the day, you are bound to come across some rude and/or incompetent customers. Here is one of the Pack and Ship Store Stories:

It was one of those days where the store was so busy I swore that one of my coworkers put out a Free Fellatio sign. I was scheduled to work 9-5. On a day like that, as every hour passes, my tolerance for annoying customers gets smaller and smaller.

So at about 4 o'clock, some old woman comes into the store and immediately bitches about how long the line is. This is a bad move if you want a friendly Pack and Ship Store employee. I see how long the line is. I realize that I'm going to be waiting on you idiots right up until 5 o'clock, please don't remind me.

She gets up to my counter and bitches about how it's too hot outside. I wouldn't know, I've been serving the shipping needs of morons all day.

She wants to ship a package to Texas. It'll get there in 3 days and cost her $12.39. She bitches about the price. This happens all the time. I don't know what the fuck is wrong with people, gas for trucks costs money. It isn't going to be $1.21 to get something across the country. And you can't flip for 12 bucks? If that's the case, maybe you should pawn these shoes instead of giving them to Chip.

Greta- "12 dollars for this little thing? That's unreal. How can I get it there cheaper?"

Me- "You could drive it down there. It's only about 1500 miles. Or maybe fly there? Do you have any frequent flyer miles ma'am?"

Greta- "No I do not and I do not care for your attit..."

Me- "Then looks like UPS is the way to go. That'll be $12.39."

Greta then spends 5 minutes looking in her purse for the 39 cents. God forbid she broke a dollar.

Greta- "These are all Canadian coins. Do you take Canadian coins?"

I'm not about to give this lady a break. She wasted a priceless amount of my time.

Me- "Absolutely not."

Greta- "Oh okay. Hmm. I wonder where these came from."

Me- "Probably Canada."

Greta- "You are quite the smart alec."

Me- "Yes I am. But don't worry, there's no extra charge."

Greta- "Is your manager here?"
