For many college students, receiving a care package from parents is always a welcome surprise. But for one young man, the excitement was short-lived as he soon discovered that his parents had a clever trick up their sleeve.
The student had just settled into his dorm room in Bucharest, eager to start his first year of college. When his parents called to say they were sending him a package, he couldn’t wait to dig in and see what goodies they had sent. He rushed to the train station, picked up the bulky bag, and hurried back to his room, anticipation building with every step.
But when he finally opened the package, he was in for a shock. Instead of the expected treats and snacks, the bag was filled with trash and wrappers. Confused and a bit annoyed, the young man searched for a note or explanation, and that’s when he found it – a cheeky message from his parents, reminding him to clean up after himself.
The note read, “You left your room messy, please take out the trash.” The young man couldn’t help but laugh at the clever prank, and he even shared the story on his Facebook page. To his surprise, the post went viral, garnering thousands of likes and comments from people who appreciated the parents’ creative and humorous approach to teaching their son a lesson.
