President's Day Blues

[CreepyLady]

Ugh. I just got a USPS alert that my Reo finally went from 60 mis away to 5 mis away and I got really excited that I was going to get it tomorrow...then I realized its a stupid holiday and no USPS

So my shiny new Reo grand is going to be locked in their stupid mail center, being held hostage, 5 miles from my front door until TUESDAY. No doubt, since it requires a signature it will come before 330 on Tuesday when I will be home from work too

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

I feel your pain.

 

[CreepyLady]

I would even pay ransom for it to be released from their evil slow moving USPS clutches...LOL. Im fairly certain since we got a whole 3 inches of snow my mail carrier just boycotted yesterday. Whatever happened to rain, nor hail, nor sleet, nor snow....

 

[nerak]

You said it: Stupid holiday! Stupid mail center!

Don't they realize that a REO deserves better than to be boxed up for so long?

Hope you get it early on Tuesday!!

 

[CATastrophe]

Well that sucks.

Our mail person would leave it if I left a note in the box for her. If your delivery person is good like that you might get lucky.

yeah, they do what they want.. witnessed first hand "notice left" when no notice was left, they just didn't feel like delivering.

at least it wasn't sent FedEx- even if it's at the center early, they won't deliver until the scheduled delivery date.. I've waited 3 days for them to bring something from Portland to my house (20 minutes away!)

We have some nonsensical rotation of 2 mail carriers.

Im going to try it. LOL. If its the guy he will come before I am here and will probably bring it back by if I leave him a message. If it is the lady she will probably lose it in her truck for a week. Fingers crossed its the mail dude.

Fedex always messes up my deliveries! My addres is # streetname HTS and there is, about 6 houses away - the same number and name but AVE and Fedex always takes my amazon packages to the poor lady there, who very kindly brings them to me. I call and tell them every time and every time they say they delivered to hts not ave...

I get mad at amazon, or anyone for that matter, for shipping FedEx. UPS all the way!

 

[Wickeddeuce]

i dont know that ups is much better, i mean in my experience my usps may be horrible with tracking but they are good on keeping to their days... just really suck on tracking which can drive me crazy... especially delivery day showing it hasnt arrived, biggest pain is no matter what i do i can not really get them to hold anything for me, the post office on post pretty much sends things out the second they get em, they dont have a storage so when the truck arrives it goes out...

ups, they suck imo, had a package that didnt move for a week... havent dealt with fed ex just know i dont like ups...

I feel your pain! My Grand was supposed to be delivered on Tuesday but thanks to old man winter and work, I only received it yesterday! But rest assured.....it will be absolutely sweet once you have it in your hands and take that first drag!!!

I am so excited for it - I absolutely adore my mini.

We had some snow and ice here in the South and we didn't get any mail foe 2 days. I was thinking the same thing you said.

Yes I love my Mini too but wanted to give a go with the Grand! My Mini is a lot stealthier but the Grand hits much better IMO! They are my only mods and it's gonna stay that way!

I think the new motto should be "if it so much as sprinkles, we dont leave our trucks"

But to give them some credit - at least they dont mix up heights and avenue. lol.

You can waive the signature online at USPS when you track your package look to the right, there should be a link to signup for it.

 

[CreepyLady]

Looks like only the sender can waive the addressee from signing and allow postal delivery person to sign. RATS!

 

[Filthy-Beast]

weird I just did it

 

[karmakatie]

Man that does bite!!! I have never had a problem with any of the mail/delivery services in this area. I feel very thankful for that after hearing some of your guys woes.

Well WTH where is MY option to do it then!!! (waaaah!)
