Hi, Dave. Most of The UPS Stores are owned and operated by franchisees, not UPS. So I doubt this dreadful language came from my former colleagues in Atlanta.
I’m aware: Dreadful? DREADFUL?! Your former Atlanta colleagues could LEARN from the directness of this language. Well, except for Dean. And Janet. They might have written it themselves. They always knew a POS when they saw one.
Oh my God, Shel! I didn’t know that jargon—nor do most UPS customers, I imagine—and I even sort of confirmed it with the clerk, by laughing at the sign while saying “POS, I love it!” and taking a picture. I think he knew how I was interpreting it … and he didn’t correct me.

My only objection in to the acronym POS I am just not in with in crowd enough at UPS to know POS.

Kitty, it means Piece of Shit.
Craig Davis says

Point of Sale.
Doesn’t mean it’s not a piece of shit.
