Today I got two packages from UPS Corporate Overgoods. I did not order anything. Overgoods is UPS' stopover for lost or missing items, I guess.
The two packages were Chefman immersion blenders. So they were sent to me, Schefman, because someone obviously screwed up. Of course I called UPS to let them know (I do not keep stuff that isn't mine), and they had someone pick them up.
He was nonplused. I explained that if he looked at the name of the addressee, Chefman, he would see that it's not the same as the contact person or my address. He said I probably could have kept them, but that isn't my M.O. I told him I was glad that they were getting to the rightful owner, and he thanked me for my honesty.
Considering that my wife thinks that all of my guitars cost less than they actually did, I'm guessing that regardless of this honesty episode ,an eternity in musician/husband hell is in my future, but really, it felt good to have UPS pick up the goods.
