So UPS delivered a book I need for my paper to my door this afternoon, at 3:34pm, which was ordered from amazon. Delivery status: Delivered. Location: Front Door.
Nothing was at my front door when I came home.
The thing is, UPS always leaves packages inside our apartment units, so essentially in my hallway. There are 4 apartments per unit. The door to get inside the hallway stays locked.
Nancy Drew says...my drunken idiot neighbor upstairs probably snatched my package. Well, dummy, enjoy Adam Phillips' Equals. My paper sure won't.
* Continues to sit on hold with amazon.com while they contact UPS. Which, by the way, it's bad when the amazon rep says "no matter what happens, please don't hang up, this could take awhile." ha!
** So amazon won't do anything about it until the 18th, which is when UPS has to recover the package. Which is stupid, because it was 2-day shipping, ordered on the 12th in the morning.
*** But they did give me a $10 credit. Considering the book was $15, that's not so bad. I can have a refund issued on Thursday if the book ends up MIA, and still keep the $10. I can live with that.
**** I really don't know why I"m updating this entry, because who on earth would care one bit?
***** However, I had a long chat with my upstairs neighbor, who turns out works for UPS! He told me, "they are very bad. dont' count on them to deliver anything." double ha!
i think that god has a sense of humor.
