There is a certain lady at my local UPS depot that gives me a hard time 
about computers.  She hasn't opened anything yet, but she always want to 
know exactly how I packed it, and then acts as if she is doing me a 
favor for letting me ship it.  She tells me that it is UPS policy to 
only ship computers in there original box.  I don't believe that for a 
second, although, it may be her policy.  Lately I've been going to Fedex 
anyway.  They're cheaper and more on my way to work.
