About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an elderly gentleman arrived at Mail Services with a large envelope. The clerk announced over the intercom: ‘Attention, everyone—we have a new customer who insists on calling himself “Mr. Secret Package.”’ For weeks, Mr. Secret Package visited every day, always wearing a fedora and never revealing anything about his package. Then one afternoon, a delivery driver joked, 'Sir, your secret’s out!' Turns out he was just picking up dry cleaning.
2. A little girl walked into Mail Services one afternoon, her eyes wide as she pointed at something on the counter. "Mommy,” she whispered, “what’s that big red stamp doing there? It looks like it’s smiling!” The clerk smiled and bent down to her level. ‘That’s not just any old stamp,’ he said softly. ‘It’s our special Smiling Postmark. Every time someone uses it, a happy letter goes out!’ The little girl giggled and ran outside with her mom, leaving behind a smile on everyone’s face—even the mailman across the street waved and shouted, ‘Happy letters for everyone today!’
3. A delivery driver pulled up to Mail Services one rainy day, umbrella in hand and packages under arm. As he reached for the door handle, he noticed something odd—an old letterbox seemed to be smiling back at him. He tilted his head curiously, then knocked gently on the letterbox. To his surprise, it made a soft chuckle and opened wider than expected. Inside was an elderly gentleman with twinkling eyes, who greeted him warmly: 'Welcome, young man! Thought you could just drive right past my little joke?' Turns out, Mail Services had been run by Mr. Jenkins, the town’s prankster, for decades.
4. A curious package arrived at Mail Services one foggy morning. As the clerk opened it, a small, crumpled note fell out: 'Open only if you’re not busy.' Curiosity got the better of him, and he unfolded the note: ‘Please deliver this letter to myself.’ Inside was another envelope addressed to ‘The Busiest Person in Town’. The clerk shook his head with a smile, thinking, ‘I’m pretty sure that’s everyone around here!’
