About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Don’s office and asked, ‘Why do you always leave your window open like that?’ Don smiled and said, 'Simple really—my boss told me not to lock myself in here alone.' The delivery driver nodded wisely and drove off, leaving Don to his daily routine of selling insurance policies with an open window.

2. In the early afternoon, a delivery driver pulled into Don’s parking lot with a puzzled look on his face. He walked into the office and exclaimed, ‘I just found an old coin collection in the trunk of my car!’ Don raised an eyebrow and asked, 'Did you happen to see any strange notes or messages inside?' The delivery driver shook his head. Smiling, Don replied, 'Then I guess it's mine—just one of those quirky coincidences.'

3. One day, while Don was explaining insurance policies to an attentive customer, a delivery driver pulled up outside and yelled, 'Hey Don, I just delivered your new mailbox!' Don looked puzzled for a moment, then realized it must be his neighbor’s old mailbox he’d been meaning to replace. With a smile, he replied, ‘Thanks, but that’s not mine.’ The delivery guy shrugged and drove off, leaving Don to explain to his customer that sometimes life delivers unexpected surprises—even if they’re just mailboxes!’

4. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver pulled into Don’s parking lot with a package marked ‘Important Documents.’ As he approached the door, he noticed something odd—a small envelope taped to the side of Don’s mailbox. Curious, he picked it up and found inside a handwritten note reading: ‘For Mr. Middleton—open only if you’re not selling enough insurance today!’ As he opened the envelope, out fell a single sheet of paper with just one sentence: 'Sell more umbrellas!' Confused but amused, Don laughed aloud. That night over dinner, his wife teasingly asked if maybe they should start selling weather-related products instead.
