A fellow driver was telling me of a particular condo he delivers to and every Friday he has a pkg for a woman he calls the 'cookie-lady'. The stop, per his description, goes something like this...
Gets buzzed in and goes down the hall to the left where the Cookie-Lady has already opened the door (The reason the door is always open when he gets to it is that she is 4 foot nothing and 1,300 lbs. and she can't get off the couch which is, you guessed it, near the door.)
He grabs the sig. and tells me that while he is walking away he can hear her literally tear in to the box and devour the contents.
Well,
last summer the stop is going as planned until the time when she leaned up to grab the diad and the side of the couch broke and on the floor she lands. (My friends description was 'earth moving') He said she is trying to adjust her moo-moo to maintain some sort of modesty but her stubby little arms couldn't reach back/up/down/around far enough to do anything.
(described as the little brother in "A Christmas Story" who was all wrapped up for winter and couldn't put his arms down.)
So, my friend is standing there taking this all in, she is face down, can't turn herself over, can't adjust her moo-moo, her cookies are somewhere she can't reach which is what I think is really bothering her, and my buddy doesn't know what to do...
He told me he was not going to be able to help her up alone, NO WAY.
He asked if he could get a neighbor and he thinks she said no but her face was buried in the carpet and he said he couldn't understand what was being said so...
he left her there.
That's what he told me. He left her there. He walked away like nothing ever happened and he was simply happy he got rid of the stop. Yes, I laughed. Yes, I am still laughing. And yes, it is probably one of the meaner things I heard a driver been a part of which leads me to ask- What is the meanest thing (or saddest) that you have done or have heard being done??

He said that he would rather chuck them in the river then come back to the building with packages and get scorned by management. I laughed my butt off when I heard that.
