A conversation at the Post Office I really didn't want to have

I recently switched Post Offices because my old one shut down the blue customer service door after efficency experts said they were too slow.
I had two packages in my box and two pink slips - an insured item and a registered box of coins from PCGS.
Me: Hi, I want to pick these up
Clerk: OK
(goes to get the packages and returns handing me the PCGS box to sign for)
Clerk: Are you a collector?
Me: Yes, do you know those people (referring to the PCGS box)?
Clerk: No, are they coins?
Me: Yes
It took a couple of years at my old PO before they knew there were coin shipments to my box. The new one learned pretty quick

Not that I would know anything about that.

<< <i>PCGS should offer "plain brown wrapper" shipping. You know, like the porno companies do
Not that I would know anything about that.
But just think then you would have perv postmen trying to open your coins
Clerk: OK
(goes to get the packages and returns handing me the PCGS box to sign for)
Clerk: Are you a collector?
Me: Collector?? (tilting head sideways inquisitively as if I am clueless)
Clerk: . . . are they coins?
Me: Oh, no! (LOL) - I wish! (continue laughing while heading towards door)

That was so mean
Me: Yeah! You collect pathgenic communicable gonorrheal strains, too? What a cooincidence! I sure wish they'd pack the specimens better, though. I've had two vials open up inside the packaging already this year. Maybe we can get together to compare notes?

<< <i>My coin world is delivered with no wrapper(except a clear plastic wrap)is that a bad idea?
I believe its the standard way besides if they sent it in plain brown paper perv mailman would try to look at at your coinworld.
