About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when Progressive’s office doors closed and everyone went home, a soft humming sound could be heard coming from inside. A delivery driver noticed it first, thinking maybe an air conditioner had malfunctioned. Curious, he knocked on the door, but no one answered. The next morning, the hum was gone, replaced by a note stuck to the door: ‘We’re closed for maintenance—please try again later.’ Turns out, it was just the air conditioning unit playing tricks on everyone.
2. One morning, while a delivery driver was leaving Progressive's parking lot, he noticed an odd note taped to his windshield: ‘Your policy is now progressive — drive carefully today!’ The delivery driver chuckled and drove off, thinking it must be some prank. Later that day, as he turned onto a quiet street, he saw an old neighbor waving from her porch. She called out, ‘Drive carefully, your policy’s progressive!’ The driver laughed so hard he almost forgot to brake for a stop sign.
3. In the Progressive parking lot, after hours, someone kept finding mysterious umbrellas in their car. They weren’t there before leaving work. Finally, one evening a neighbor found an umbrella with a note: ‘It’s raining good vibes!’ Turned out, it was just a prank by a regular who wanted everyone to know they were covered—figuratively and literally.
4. In the Progressive office building, late one afternoon, a security guard overheard a strange voice whispering from an empty conference room. Curious, he approached the door and heard a faint, mocking laughter. Peering inside, he saw only shadows dancing on the walls. Suddenly, a voice said, 'Insurance policies are like umbrellas—you hope you never use them!' Everyone burst out laughing, including the befuddled guard, realizing it was just a prank played by a coworker during a slow day.
