He received a call from his parents informing him that they would send him a package.

Students get excited when they receive packages of treats from home, no matter the method of transport.

However, parents can be playful, as one student found out the hard way.

He had just settled into his dormitory in Bucharest, starting his first year at college.

His parents told him they were sending a package. He rushed to the train station, grabbed a big box, and returned to his dorm. Opening it, he was stunned to find it full of just wrappers and garbage instead of snacks. Confused at first, he then noticed a note.

It read: “You left your room messy. Please dispose of the trash.”

The young man appreciated the humor in the prank and took away a valuable lesson, sharing the story on his Facebook.

The post instantly became a hit, attracting thousands of likes and comments.
