I hate to be the killjoy but am somewhat of a realist. If I order it on Tuesday, the team is swamped because of ACB Tuesday, holiday on Thursday, no ACB till next week at least. Unless I spring for warp speed shipping and I can't The Virus is running low and the stoopid post office has lost my Wakonda just like they did my last The Virus. ... :facepalm:
You've lost two orders? ...or rather the post office did? :( That's awful: it's dreadful looking out for something and not have it turn up!

I'm trying not to tempt fate, but only had one small bottle of WTA go missing since I began.

I am unfortunately familiar with mishandled packages. Apparently my post master thought it would be a good idea to put my stuff here. No matter, it was only juice and a Christmas present for my son. /sarcasm

Well in all fairness I guess they didn't lose them I get them eventually, but the post office does "misplace" them for a good while. I placed an order for Wakonda on the 18th since then there has been no tracking updates other than the arrived at the Omaha, NE post office and then it stalls. After about 5 days or so when I check the number it says "not found" so I wait a while longer then magically they find it or something and it shows up in a few more days.

But all my other orders seem to update at least every other day or so. It's like USPS knows which ones are my favorite and are screwing with me. As if I didn't have enough on my plate guess I just need to order like 4 or 5 60mls per Virus/Wakonda so I never run out. :facepalm:

You need to stakeout the post office and find out which of the postal critters come out blowing clouds smelling like pancakes and coffee...

I think only once we've come home to find something left in open sight (by a carrier), but we've had the same great postman for years now, and I do work at home, so two things that can help a lot!

Always seems to be something you're really waiting for too! Again, I'm impressed with the shipping of my CB from Nebraska on 18th to arrival at London Heathrow on 21st! It didn't get here on Sat. 22nd though, so hopefully today! :)

It was the first time I tried it too - only a small package but the tracking showed it as delivered at 9.22 am ....our postman hadn't even started until 10am that day, so much later when he got to us. They did send me another bottle, but looks like the postal service delivered it somewhere else altogether.

I've actually had worse luck with UPS than USPS. My son HAD to have an item so I bought it, paid for overnight delivery. We waited, and waited and waited. The text update said it had been delivered. I called UPS and they said that according to the driver, he had placed it on my front step so I went looking. On the front step, back step, in the yard, the neighbors front step....nothing. Call UPS again and they say well maybe he left it somewhere so that it was a bit hidden from view so I go back and look around the yard again. He needs this stuff like now! So I give up, get in my car to leave, drive up the road and see a package on the front porch of an unoccupied house 5 houses up from mine so I get out and go look. Yep, it's the package I'm waiting for. So I call UPS back and they tell me well the driver doesn't have GPS to be able to locate my house. House numbers have to be visible here...the house number where the package was left? 1426, my house number is 1436. So I tell the UPS person I'm talking to that the driver didn't have GPS but obviously can't read either. :glare:

That has happened more times than I care to count. When K has something coming via UPS he has to take off work and as soon as he hears the truck run out there. Often the driver has left it on some other porch blocks away and K has to point out our address and the street name and makes them go get it. All. The. Time. :facepalm:

lol!

Had a funny Virus morning today. I was at my Mom's house they were backwashing her pool and it overflowed into the house so I was helping her clean everything up since she just had knee surgery. Well when I was done she was standing in the door to the garage and we were talking a minute before I left and I took a puff off of my Reo with The Virus in and she said,"What's that smell you are vaping." :D

I said it was called The Virus and started naming off the different tastes in it when I got to maple she said that's it!!! I laughed and told her some people say it smells like waffles and that's why I liked it in the morning, to which she agreed. We had a good laugh about my "breakfast smell" that I vape. :D

Just to hear my Mom say things like vaporizer, and vape still gives me an lol! Talk about being happy I am not smoking that she would even try to learn the lingo to have conversations with me about it.
