Things SNC Mail Center Workers Are Sick Of Hearing

Yes, we do more than just get your packages

I didn't get an email, but can you just check if my package arrived?

Google

Every time we scan packages the alert automatically goes straight to your inbox. So it didn't magically appear. But of course we'll go look.

All you guys do is get packages for people

Google

HA. HA. HA. We wish this was true. We scan and deliver mail to the departments on 3 different routes, meter mail, sort mail, forward mail, assign keys to mailboxes, add the incoming freshmen to the system, delete the graduated seniors, add new employees to the system, deal with customers, and if there's nothing else to do we clean.

I forgot my key, can you get my mail for me?

Google

Look we totally get it that shit happens and you forget your key, but seriously students, just grab your keys every time you leave your room.

Thanks for getting my package, but I also have mail and don't have my key, go back and get it?

Google

So is there a reason why you couldn't tell us this the first time we went to the back?

Why don't you accept credit/debit cards?

Google

WE DON'T KNOW.

That damn bell

Google

To us it's like the nails on the chalkboard sound

How do I make a letter?

Google

How were you not taught how to send out a letter when you were little?

What are your hours?

Google

The sign with our hours and services is literally right behind the front desk, big and bold for everyone to see

I saw you the other day driving the van!

Google

Ugh. We hate having to drive a mini van and to have people see us in it...not okay.

Thanks for delivering our packages, but we don't want them here, i'll show you where to put them

Google

Our job is to only deliver your packages, not to help you rearrange them. We're on a time crunch between classes to do this for you, so we don't have much time. Also, they're not heavy at all or anything.

Not getting a thank you for being helped

Google

Yeah, you're welcome

I don't want this box, can you go find another one?

Google

We only have a limited amount of used boxes for people to ship out items, and the sizes are all super random, so sorry that we don't have one big or small enough for you. You can buy a padded envelope then, we know they cost money, but we can't help how many boxes we have.

But overall, we love working at the Mail Center

Google

It's a laid back campus job that we have fun with it, and we're glad we can help you. So sorry if you're being a super nice customer and we seem crabby, we just had to deal with an annoying customer before.
