I realize that now. I didn't know it then which is why I was so suprised
at the late phone call.

I did as much as I could at the time (this happened the first year I tried
keeping bees and was rather inexperienced myself) I didn't mention another
postal worker who, while also scared of the bees (he kept his distance from
the package) was also quite interested in the whole process. I talked with him
for a while. I also apologized when I saw bees hanging on the outside.

Huh? None of the postal workers I considered "bad apples". The closest was
the worker who made me go back and get them, but if there were bees on the
outside I cannot fault him.
Once I saw how bee packages were shipped I thought how it must be "interesting"
when bee packages show up in an incoming shipment, esp. for a new worker who
has never seen them before. I suppose to a few it must be an interesting
diversion from a very boring job, although I'm sure others would rather
handle a package with a return address of "Ted Kazynski".
