Sometimes there's a pleasant surprise
So I went to the big regional post office today because i missed a package. I only confirmed they had my package after being on hold for half an hour with said post office. This does not bode well. So anyway, I get down there, and am #66 when they called 25. However, there was a window for people picking up packages and think i'm gonna get out of there fast, when the guy in front of me starts throwing a muted hissy fit about how he can't take his package home (it's this giant heavy-looking thing barely held together by plastic straps) because he doesn't have a car, and how he waited all of yesterday for it, and they didn't come, or they didn't ring the doorbell and all he wants is to get the package home. After a seeming impasse about him wanting a 2 hour window for the delivery, and them asking him if he'd be home that day, the manager went to go talk to someone.
Now, I'm thinking, ok he pulls a few strings, he gets it to him Monday maybe during a 4 hour window. To my surprise, he comes back and has arranged for a mail carrier to take the package, the customer, AND his bike to the guy's home, leaving in 5 minutes. How awesome is that?
