At the Post Office

택배·우체국

I slid the box across the counter carefully. "Is this going to arrive by Friday?" I asked. He checked and said Thursday, most likely.
The birthday was only days away. "It needs to get there by Saturday," I stressed. He recommended express shipping to be safe.
He pushed a small form toward me. "Do I need to fill this out first?" I asked. He nodded and handed me a pen.
I was mailing several boxes at once. "What's the cheapest way to send these?" I asked. He suggested ground shipping in one bundle.
He printed the label and stuck it on top. "It should arrive in three days," he said. I left feeling oddly accomplished.
