jaybyrd 3,770 Posted January 26, 2015 I've read many of the horror stories on here from Mz. Skeeter, Bill and Scott so i figured why not add to the pile Package is 10 day out on a 2 day mail and it finally made it to the right state. Still not delivered but at least it made it to the correct state and I'm hopeful with another week it'll get there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaybyrd 3,770 Posted January 26, 2015 I'll have them look to see if he drew a face on it if it ever gets there. What scares me is there is glass in it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted January 26, 2015 them and the buyers - had a guy I upgraded his shipping from first class to priority - in 2 days it had just shown leaving Michigan so he sent a message about it being late . . . really - you paid for 7 day and complaining because it hasn't got there in 2. - it actually arrived on the third day. so if it isn't the post office that hardly delivers 2 day like they say the customers expect it across country before it leaves the state 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted January 26, 2015 Just got a text that it arrived all in one piece but alas there were no drawings indicating it had been on the island. Must of just been stuck in usps limbo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moody Blue 505 Posted January 26, 2015 I feel the pain. Customer asked where his stuff was from over 2 weeks ago. I checked USPS when I got back from FL on Wednesday and they not only took 10 days to mail it, but they sent to his old address....from 3 years ago. Idk how they could "fudge" up that bad when I gave them the new address...same address I sent a previous order back before Christmas. Now attempting to dispute the transaction since they are clearly at fault in this situation...and in further frustration the "unintentional" recipient must have no plans to return the product or I would have back by now or at least an email/phone call regarding the mystery of the package Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted January 26, 2015 When I got my last cutter somebody at the local UPS dist. center crossed out my address and sent it somewhere in the upstate because the had never heard of North. Would still like to meet that special person and beat the snot out of him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildgoose 4,200 Posted January 26, 2015 I think it only happens on the ones that actually matter. The ones that aren't in a hurry get there faster than a Jimmy Johns sandwich but when you are really counting on them they have some sort of angst detector that goes off and they set it aside to think about it a few extra days. Ha ha! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VinylRevamp 93 Posted January 29, 2015 Lmao! Notice all i said was i work for the usps. I did not disagree with you guys. The office where i am now....customer service is horrible starting from the supervisor. They are rude to the customers all the time for no reason what so ever. A lot of employees do not put that extra effort into caring for what they do BECAUSE of management and higher ups. Everything for them its only about numbers. It's unbelievable how they push you to the limit and try to squeeze every second. They don't give time for route maintenance so that's why you usually see your carrier (with the exception of a few) in a rush and not really wanting to talk to customers. This is not an excuse, just the reality of it. And I'm not saying that all this is mentioned makes it okay to screw up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaybyrd 3,770 Posted January 29, 2015 My local post office is actually great. It's just from here to there where the problems arise but I will say when my rural carrier dies I think they will find tons of mail squirreled away because half of my stuff doesn't get to my home.
