We've had the same UPS guy for years and I've known him casually for a long time. He works from a city an hour away. Awhile back, after him being so nice about my deliveries, even to the point of finding me around town when I wasn't home, I was expecting a delivery and bought him a nice box of expensive fudge and a pretty candle, had it put in a nice gift bag, etc. When he came for the delivery, I handed it to him as a gesture of my gratitude. He responded "What ya got for me, some good drugs?" I was quite taken aback!!! I played it off as "Oh, you wouldn't want to have to take the vile meds I am on since my surgery", and left it at that. Still, it stayed on my mind for a couple days. It made me very umcomfortable. I've seen him since, he always inquires as to my health/recovery, so I choose to think he was just making small talk/joking around (though not in good taste). A friend suggested I contact his supervisor, but I figure, why rock the boat and just bring more attention to myself? His fill-in, when he was on vacation, told me that he makes tons of med deliveries these days. Seeemed to think nothing of it.
However, as badly as I hate to admit this, I still have a feeling of dread when I know the regular UPS guy is coming, after that comment. I have even been cowardly enough to simply leave the envelope with money order sealed and on the door with a note inside containing my signature, and make myself busy away from the house.
I probably made a mountain out of a molehill, but that comment really got to me.
We have since moved, only a few blocks, and he was here one day during the move, came inside to see the house with my husband and I, and we told him that once we get settled we would like to have him join us for lunch break. He graciously accepted. That comment probably meant nothing and was forgotten by the time he got back into the truck. I do tend to be a paranoid type person, and have chosen to give him the benefit of the doubt.
