What is your best reply to,"What is it?"

[wayfair]

"not sure... what are... ben wah balls?? some kind of pitching exercise?"

 

[UPSGUY72]

I usually say I don't know. Sometimes at a business I'll add and don't care either it's just cardboard to me. When they give me a funny look or say something I just reply when I start wondering what in the boxes I deliver it's time to start looking for another job.

Group of guys sitting around the break room. I go over to the normal guy that signs for boxes and hand him the diad board. He says "what is it" I say "Gag balls and s and it has your name on it"
He never asked again. Couple of those guys laugh when I deliver still.

I say I don't know but it's ticking so don't open it until I am gone.Have a nice day!

 

[werenotthepostoffice]

I always say, "I don't know, the don't let us open stuff anymore."

I think it's kind of lame but most people get a good chuckle out of it.

I've said that before

Must be a new driver.You will get a sense of humor after people ask you"what is it?" a few thousand times.

Yep 15 years , you guess after 15 years and at least twice a day I would really really be tired of hearing that so much I just gave up

 

[BrownDog5117]

In all honesty, I just say "I don't know.. something good I hope."

 

[SCV good to go sir.]

"You tell me, you ordered it."

That shut them up real quick, but after seeing the look on their face, I've decided not to use that one anymore unless I'm dealing with an .

 

[barnyard]

I used to use the kryptonite reply. Now I always say, "Weed."

 

[theslinger]

It's a box!!!! Yayyyy!!

 

[BrownArmy]

Is that for us?

(No, I'm bringing you a package for a completely different business in a completely different town).

What is it?

(Absolutely no idea, don't know, don't care).

Who is it for?

(It's for XXX).

We didn't order anything.

(Clearly you did, or someone involved in your organization did, because, look, I'm here with a package!)

That person doesn't work here.

(They do - I've met them before - they just chose to have their Zappos delivered to their workplace instead of their domicile, and I thank them, because even though it's personal chit, I still have to deliver by the 15:00 cut-off for the NDA saver).

Do I have to sign for that?

(Yes, that's why I'm waving my 'do-I-have-to-sign-it thingy' in your general direction with a sense of urgency).
