Pre-takeoff checklist
I admit it. My wife and I have a bad Amazon habit. We probably get a box at our door once every week AT least. I figure it ends up being cheaper than buying at the local grocery or mall. And we don't have to spend a ton of time shopping which I am not a fan of -- I assume I am not alone here.
Anyway, most of the stuff we buy on Amazon for whatever reason ends up coming to us through UPS. But once in a while we get a package delivered trough USPS. The last three times we have had something come in from USPS, it ALWAYS has been delayed or has some sort of problem with delivery. One time, they delivered it to a different address. Another time, they required signature and even though I went online and requested delivery without receipt (which was a ridiculous PITA), it still never got translated to the driver so it took two more days before they figured it out. And the most recent time, I swear that they never even tried to deliver it to the house (we were home the entire time) and they ended up marking on the ticket (electronically, btw, no paper notice was left) that the "business was closed." I live in a prominent, well known, neighborhood so it is hard to believe that they can be this dense.
I honestly have to think twice now whether I am willing to order anything that comes through the mail from USPS. I NEVER have cared in the past. But now...I am realizing it makes a difference.
