The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At The UPS Store one morning, a delivery driver announced over the intercom that packages were now being delivered by unicorns. Employees and customers looked up from their computers, stunned but smiling. A few minutes later, another voice crackled over the intercom: ‘And don’t forget, everyone—unicorns only deliver during odd-numbered days!’ A customer in the back exclaimed, ‘That explains why my package never arrived!’ Everyone burst into laughter, including the befuddled delivery driver who shrugged and said, ‘Hey, I’m just the messenger.’

2. At The UPS Store one day, a regular asked the staff: ‘Why does every package here seem heavier than it should be?’ A delivery driver then piped up, smiling slyly: ‘Because, sir, when you sign for our packages, you also sign away any right to complain about their weight!’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the regular who shook his head and said, ‘I’ll never look at my packages the same way again.’

3. At The UPS Store one afternoon, a neighbor rushed in with an urgent package. He whispered to the clerk, 'I need this delivered before midnight or my cat will never forgive me!' The clerk nodded seriously and took the package, promising it would arrive on time. Later that night, as the delivery driver was making his rounds, he saw a small furry figure following him down the street. It was the neighbor’s cat, meowing insistently. The driver smiled, shook his head, and drove off, knowing full well that cats always get what they want—even if it means delivering packages after hours.

4. At The UPS Store one night, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar on the loading dock—a mysterious box wrapped in so many layers of tape it looked like a present from another dimension. Curious, he opened it carefully and found… nothing but more tape! It seemed the sender had run out of things to put inside. Eventually, everyone at the store got a kick out of it, calling the package ‘the infinite tape loop.’ A regular even stopped by later with his own mystery package—this time filled with coffee for the staff.
