A few stories people tell about this place

1. In the early morning fog of downtown Chicago, a delivery driver pulled up to Covered Insurance with an unusual package. As he approached the door, the receptionist noticed something peculiar—an old umbrella attached to the box. The receptionist smiled and said, ‘We’re not expecting any umbrellas today.’ She opened the package to reveal a brand-new umbrella inside, complete with a handwritten note from a regular customer: “Just in case it rains.” The delivery driver laughed and shook his head, muttering, “Another day, another mystery solved.”

2. At closing time in Covered Insurance’s lobby, an employee noticed something strange—an old umbrella had mysteriously appeared on the reception desk. Curious, she picked it up and saw a small note attached: ‘For your next rainy day.’ Over the following weeks, more umbrellas appeared—each one slightly different but always left anonymously. Soon enough, employees started leaving their own umbrellas as well, creating a quirky tradition that made the place feel like a little community sheltered from life's unexpected storms.

3. In the dim light of a winter evening, a customer asked the receptionist, ‘Do you ever get strange umbrellas here?’ The receptionist smiled and replied, 'Oh yes, once in a while someone brings an umbrella as a joke.' A delivery driver chimed in, 'I brought one shaped like a penguin last week!' The whole room burst into laughter, and the customer left with a smile, thinking maybe Covered Insurance covered more than just insurance.

4. On a stormy night in New Orleans, a group of friends sought shelter from the rain inside Covered Insurance's lobby. As they chatted, one friend noticed something odd on the ceiling—a tiny umbrella slowly spinning in the air. Curious, another friend reached up and tried to grab it, but just as their hand got close, the little umbrella shot off like a rocket, landing with a thud on the counter behind the receptionist. Everyone burst out laughing, realizing that maybe Covered Insurance had some unusual ways of doing business after all.
