The UPS Store

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while a little girl waited for her dad to drop off some documents at The UPS Store, she noticed something peculiar. Every time the delivery driver approached the door, their dog would start barking uncontrollably—even though no one else seemed to notice. Finally, curious about why only her pooch reacted, the girl asked her father if anyone else heard the commotion. He shook his head and smiled, saying, ‘No, sweetie—it’s just your dog’s way of greeting our friendly neighborhood delivery guy.’

2. Have you ever noticed how long it takes for packages to arrive here? A regular once asked the clerk if The UPS Store had secretly become The Slow Package Service. A delivery driver once complained to the manager that his truck was stuck in the parking lot again. Manager calmly replied, 'Sir, our lot is designed specifically for slow deliveries.'

3. In the early hours of every Monday morning, before anyone else arrives, The UPS Store is filled with the sound of gentle laughter and soft piano music. No one knows where it's coming from or who’s playing—it just seems to fade away as soon as employees turn on their computers. One day, a new employee asked an old timer, ‘Who’s playing that beautiful music?’ The old timer shrugged and said, “That’s just Mr. Postman, he comes in every Sunday night after closing.” Everyone laughed, until they saw the mail truck pulling up outside…

4. Have you heard why it's always so quiet in 'The UPS Store' after lunchtime? Because everyone's waiting for their package to arrive... again! One day, a neighbor came in asking if anyone had picked up their package yet—again. The clerk replied, ‘Not today, sir, but don’t worry, it’ll probably show up tomorrow… or maybe next week!’ Everyone laughed, knowing that’s just how things work here.
