Default Cute FedEx Delivery Guy Story

[Posting it here for temporal maximum exposure, but please move it later. Thanks.]

At work, the CFO's last name shares the same first letter as my last name. The FedEx guy came by the other day with a package for the CFO. He wandered over to my office, look at the name plate, look at the package and decided the names are close enough. He came in and asked me to sign for the package. Didn't even crack a smile, he was that serious. Cute, too.

Not to be outdone, the UPS guy did the same thing yesterday. Maybe I should hang one of those "YES UPS" signs on my door.

I noticed that you didn't comment on the UPS guy being cute.......well, that's just par for the course!

Exactly - also the title of the thread says "Cute FedEx Delivery Guy Story." - no mention of UPS there either... I resent your purple bias...

I wouldn't call it a purple bias as much as an aversion to brown

No, Busboy, I was saving myself for you. I have a purple bias, according to AV8OR.

The UPS fella was kinda cute, but he had hairy legs. I mean really hirsute.

Now when is my friend, frozenboxhauler, coming home?

Hirsute? Was that in your crossword this morning or your "word of the day" calendar? I had to look that one up.

Is that a derivative of "hairsuit"?
