Post: Grumble Grumble, mistletoe and pine. Time to hit up with a bout of FofR for another day. That's if you are a regular, and of them there are few. Syringes at the ready. Today I awoke at 8:00am again, cause you know, that HDD hasn't arrived yet. Guess what. It still hasn't. Time for an investigation into this so called "next day premium courier service", so I check the package tracker and see where the parcel has gotten to. Turns out it's at the local depot, where it has been for four days. Wonderful. Time to pay the courier service a call as to why it hasn't arrived... ring ring. Ring Ring. Ring. Hello. The conversation went a little like this, although I wasn't the one talking;
[quote]"Yes we have attempted to deliver it on three separate occasions, each time posting a leaflet to tell you to ring us to sort a time of delivery".
"I have been here every morning, waiting patiently for it to arrive and we have had no package, visit or leaflet".
"None?"
"None"
"Ok."
"Has he been going to the wrong house?"
*address check*
"We tried to deliver to the front door."
"Ah, that is difficult here, as the paths etc... get confusing, plus you have to walk a way to actually get to it."
"Ok, we will try again tomorrow, give us a phone number to contact you."
*tell details on precise house to go to, via the back road*
*cross fingers*[/quote]
How retarded is a courier service that can't find a correct address on 3 separate occasions!!!!!!!
In other news; today I made an affiliate for my Evangelion site and prepare to sort out the prolabmusic.com website which will be ready in a couple of days. Hoorah! I will be redesigning sections for ease of use. I also set about watching the remake of "The Ring" but it cut out 15 minutes in. Which was frustrating to say the least.
Gone.
