[QUOTE="Ms.PacMan, post: 1253549, member: 4656"] I delivered a COD to an old couple and the old man told me to step in for just a second because he had a question about the money order and it was on the table. It was a trap, lol! When I stepped in I could see that he had a contract, a pen and two glasses of water arranged on the table. He warned me that he had got a postal money order and that I could be federally prosecuted if I stole the money! He told me to sit down and he would read the contract to me! I told him he'd have to pick his package up from the center because I was only collecting the check and not signing anything. He was pretty upset things weren't going as planned and begged me to at least read the contract. He asked me what he was supposed to get for a receipt and I told him the package was his receipt. It was 1000 degrees in their house and I thought I might pass out before I convinced him to just take the box. He was nearly in tears asking me why he should give a money order to a stranger and I said it was no different than giving his money to the cashier at the grocery store - if she stole it, her employer would fire her but he got the groceries - same with the package. Success! That clicked with him and he gave me the money order in exchange for the package. If he hadn't been pushing 90 years old I would never have wasted that much time. [/QUOTE]
