Apparently, Amazon's own in-house carrier service is on something...
... and on top of it isn't it.... LMAO
I fully expected that a new carrier, such as Amazon's, would have growing pains, it's only logical and normal that they won't have everything they need in place for everything to go smoothly. What I didn't expect was that they act as if they have no experience at all, like they didn't hire anyone to operate it that had any shipping experience period.
I always send shipments to my business instead of my house since that is where I'm going to be at. Every shipper that I've dealt with in the past knows that packages need delivered to business's before 5pm ( most try to deliver even sooner ).... every one except Amazon it seems. I had 3 packages coming, two were ETA'd for today and one on Monday. When I checked the tracking this morning, one showed out for delivery and the second was shown as arriving by 9pm .... at a business address no less. I finally got the actual shipping notice ( and out for delivery ) for the second one at 4pm then a short time later.... the one scheduled for Monday was also shown as out for delivery with both being shown to arrive by 9pm also and it seems they actually packaged it together with the other ( the 2nd one ).
When the 1st package actually arrived a little before 5pm, I gave the driver a print out of the other package tracking and asked if he'd tell them to deliver on Monday instead since I close at 5:30pm and they lock the building down at 7pm. I'd have complained to the driver about it but he'd actually mentioned it himself that they should deliver to business's first the last time he'd delivered something to me. It's sad when a driver had better business sense than the management he's working for.
