The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning at The UPS Store when a delivery driver arrived with a package so heavy he struggled to carry it inside. As he bent down to place it on the counter, everyone noticed something strange: the box seemed to emit a soft hum. As everyone leaned in closer, they saw a tiny LED light blinking inside—a GPS tracker? A security camera? No one knew. But then, out popped a little penguin toy from the box! It turned out to be a birthday gift for someone’s kid next door. The whole store burst into laughter, and that day became known as ‘the day the penguin delivered joy.’

2. A little girl entered The UPS Store one afternoon, her eyes wide with curiosity as she watched a delivery driver carefully sorting packages. Suddenly, she pointed and giggled: ‘Mommy, look! That man is talking to himself!’ The delivery driver smiled and nodded to himself, pretending not to notice. Mom looked at him curiously for a moment before turning back to her daughter and whispering, 'Honey, that's just how he talks when he's thinking.' They both laughed, and the little girl never mentioned it again.

3. A delivery driver pulled up to The UPS Store one rainy afternoon, umbrella in hand and packages piled high. As he stepped inside, he noticed something odd: every single employee had frozen mid-task, staring intently at their computer screens. Finally, an older gentleman behind the counter cleared his throat and said, ‘Sir, you’re standing right on our Wi-Fi hotspot.’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the delivery driver who promptly moved a few feet away.

4. A delivery driver pulled up to The UPS Store one foggy morning, muttering under his breath as he fumbled for his keys. ‘Why does it always rain on me?’ Suddenly, the door swung open before him, and a voice called out: 'Good morning, sir!' ‘Morning,’ said the driver grumpily, noticing the open door for the first time. ‘Who left it ajar?’ A small, friendly voice replied from behind the counter: ‘It’s just our way of saying “Welcome!”’ The driver shook his head with a smile, thinking maybe his day wasn’t so bad after all.
