I hate the U.S. Postal Service. They are so unbelievably inefficient. I'm *still* waiting for my Lincecum shirt that I ordered on Amazon. All my other purchases (both for myself and for others) already arrived at their various destinations, mind you, and when I checked the tracking a couple of days ago, it had arrived here in Asheville on November 23, yet still wasn't here yesterday. How the hell can it take three days to get delivered right here in town?
So...I just got back on Amazon to check the tracking again, and here is what I found:
November 26, 2010 11:11:00 AM Murphy NC Shipment forwarded to a different delivery address
November 26, 2010 11:10:00 AM Murphy NC Arrival Scan
November 23, 2010 02:29:00 PM Asheville NC Shipment received by carrier
November 22, 2010 --- --- Shipment has left seller facility and is in transit
Hello? Why would they send it to Murphy, which is 2 hours from here? So I called the main number for the USPS, and they said "sometimes it happens that way," but it did get sent back from Murphy and arrived in Asheville this morning, and *maybe* I'll get it today. Thank goodness for small favors, but if they hadn't screwed up, I would have gotten it three days ago and could have been wearing it proudly by now. :::sigh:::
Okay, back to your regularly scheduled programming.
