I have a question about company that has you mail packages. I have done them for years and have always had extra boxes so do not have to buy one. This time I am away from home and picked up three post office jobs and have no boxes. I have been to two Wal-Marts, dollar store, and family dollar and no small boxes. I can purchase some at Home Depot but they are around 2.50 a box. I know company will pay some but will they pay that much for a box? I sent a note to the company but no response so far and I have to do two of the shops on Monday.

Thanks, I'm not near a staples but will keep that in mind when I go home. I tried Office Depot, but the smallest one they had was 2.49

If someone is asking a question about which company does what, that hardly constitutes as someone being lazy. It sounds like someone who needs help finding work.
I’m not sure why that should bother you.

I agree with your original post as the OP appears quite entitled based on the wording of the post. “Please advise” made me think this person is either a) an @#$%& or b) someone for whom English is their second language or c) a generally rude person in everyday life.
I don’t mind pointing someone in the right direction as the statistical probability of them being in my area and snagging the shops I want prior to me getting them are slim to none.
Onto this quote, many company’s do competitor shops, benchmarking and they often collaborate. While the CEO isn’t calling up his buddy at Amazon for the details, I am sure they sit on the same boards, hit the golf course together and talk shop and strategy.
I know in my industry, we often collaborate with competitors to learn what’s hot in the industry.
To sum this all up, it isn’t a ruthless dog eat dog world out there as many may seem and the OP rubbed me the wrong way which is why I didn’t initially respond.
