“I Can’t Do That!”

As a courier for an express delivery service, a man tried to deliver a package that required refrigeration, but found no one home.

He went to the house next door and told the woman who answered
that he had a package or neighbor.

"Oh, she works Monday through Friday and every other Saturday,"
said the woman, "and some Sundays.

She leaves about 7:40 in the morning and gets home around 5:30,
unless she goes to the store, in which case it's closer to 7.

And she's going to the store tonight because her kids are coming to visit --
one all the way from California!"

When she paused to take a breath,
the courier asked if she would except her neighbor's package.

"Oh, no, I can't do that," she said. "I don't know her that well."
