Frustration and Danger in the Land of Packaging Hell and Shrinkage

Chiquita, are you saying there are no PO Expresses in any grocery stores on the West Side?  That's nuts.

Regarding the tape:  He was adding some to a plain box I was mailing Priority and insuring at the counter, and I asked where I could *get some of that*, and he just gave it to me.  About 3/4 a roll. 

It's a real trip using our express.  There's as much laughter there as hard work...

On the westside probably, not in the big Rio. We have one post office, and we are the fastest growing city in the USA, go figure. Star you are having way too much fun at the PO.  You are also a shameless flirt, good for you.

Is this really necessary? I don't think the dish is going to escape by itself. Did the employee get paid by the yard of tape used? I still miss that dumb tape...  :'( Kim

Did you order it from an eBay seller?

Amy - It WAS an eBay seller! How did you know?  ^-^

I think a 50 piece set came with each piece like that--took me hours to undo. I shouldn't complain because it is better than the dish arriving in 50 pieces because it was thrown in a box with a few newspapers which has also happened.

I also hate it when they do that because it ruins the bubble wrap for re-use. Kim
