Mailing a "magazine"...


Yesterday morning at the "Pack and Mail" store (on the corner near my office), the lady in line in front of me wanted to mail a "magazine"...
The guy behind the counter looked at her and said the normal "mail" schpeel: " Is there anything hazardous, fragile, liquid, yadda yadda yadda?"
The lady said, "Umm well. I'm not sure"
The guy said, "well what are you trying to mail"
Lady: "a magazine"
Guy: "What kindddd of magazine" (b/c the package was the size of an envelope and lumpy?)
Lady: "well, an empty one."
Guy: "ummm, you mean a MAGAZINE FOR A GUN?"
Lady: "yes, but I SAIDDD IT WAS EMPTY???"
Guy: "Maam by federal law we can't mail any guns or PARTS of guns for FedEx OR the USPS... I'll loose my license"
Lady: WELLLLLL I SHOULD HAVE JUST LIEDDDDDDDDDD ABOUT IT....
^&%*, $^%$^%m, @#(*& ... Expletives the wholllle way OUT the door..
The KICKER -- it was 9:10am!
What a way to start the day?....
Poor guy got cussed out doing his job and I was expecting to get shot on the way OUT the door!
A magazine? Seemed harmless enough? RIght?
