So Close and Yet so Far: A Tale of How the Post Office Kinda Screwed Up My Christmas

I placed an order last weekend hoping it would arrive before Christmas. Well it has... sort of. It was "delivered" to my PO box today. Unfortunately instead of leaving a key to a parcel locker they left a slip to pick it up at the front desk. The post office closes at 10:30 on Saturdays and I got there after that.

So even though it is "delivered" I can't actually get it until the post office opens again... which is after Christmas. Sorry for the rant, I'm just pissed I have to wait 2 more days and I have to be sober for Christmas because they couldn't use the parcel locker.

I feel ya. At my PO, if I have the card and hear people in the back, I knock on the door from the lobby to the back and some kind soul will fetch my package.

Dress up as Santy Clause and try to get in through the chimney or something. If you get caught you can say that you were delivering toys

I hate when they do that especially when you can fold the package and put it in there will just have to get the biggest locker next time.

You wanna here a rant? My pack was put on the wrong cargo plane and shipped to an American Island Territory.

This Islands post offices are only open during certain times of the year or some shit, apparently.

The pack moves a day later, loaded on the plane- to an annex in a city far, far away.

10 days later pack arrives. On a Sunday!
