About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver asked an odd question as he parked his truck near MetroPlains office: ‘Do you ever feel like someone’s watching you from inside those empty houses?’ The receptionist smiled and shrugged, replying, 'Well, if they are, then they must be really bored.' Just then, a neighboring realtor stuck his head in and teased, 'Maybe they’re just waiting for their own house to sell!' Everyone laughed, and the delivery driver drove off, muttering something about needing more coffee.
2. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to MetroPlains Management and announced over the intercom: ‘Attention, everyone—we’re out of coffee!’ The office fell silent for a moment before someone shouted, 'Send him in!' The delivery driver entered with an apologetic smile, carrying two large bags. He placed them on the counter and said, 'Here you go, boss—two boxes of joe.' Everyone burst into laughter as they realized it was just another case of mistaken identity. From then on, whenever anyone needed coffee, they simply called out, 'Delivery driver, we're out of coffee!'
3. One afternoon, a neighbor walked into MetroPlains Management with a puzzled look on her face. ‘I’ve been seeing these strange lights coming from your office,’ she said. The realtor shrugged, not realizing that every night since then, the building’s neon sign had been flashing ‘For Sale’ in morse code. Finally, one evening after closing time, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off near the front door. Startled awake by the blinking neon, he mumbled something about ‘Sale!’ and promptly fell asleep again. When the realtor arrived next morning, they found him still slumped there—completely oblivious to the fact that his head was now part of the sign's illuminated display.
4. One evening, a neighbor stopped by MetroPlains Management with a curious expression. ‘Why do you always list “flying saucer-shaped” as one of the unique features for properties in rural areas?’ The agent blinked and smiled sheepishly. 'Oh, well,' he said, 'we're just trying to attract visitors from UFO conventions!' The neighbor shook his head and walked away, muttering something about alien real estate agents.
