Talk about bad timing :( - GoFuckYourself.com

I was waiting for a quoted delivery between 9am-5pm yesterday... gave up at about 6pm and went for a nap.

My wife left to visit someone. Her car disappeared from our security cam at 7:47:30pm

The delivery truck appeared at 7:48:36pm. 66 seconds later.

I was completely exhausted after keeping myself awake all day so I didn't hear the knock. #@$&(^!!!!

Funny thing is the driver wrote on the card that he visited at 5:35pm. He's not fooling me.

thanks for sharing the story

i go to the bank today, but before i enter the bank, i go to a mexican food restaurant next to it, and i order take away food, it should be ready in 30 mins

then i go to the bank, but theres suddenly a huge waiting line, so I wait 28 minutes in line, and then its my turn but i have to leave already since the food is waiting already in the restaurant

keep in mind, i went there especially to the bank, food was just extra
but i decided its better to drive to the bank again in a few days than to eat the food cold

Happens to me everytime I am looking for something to get delivered.

Mutt · 01-22-2008, 05:21 PM

because of my erratic sleeping schedule happens to me quite often.

is it possible to give Fedex or UPS permission to leave a package in the garage or even give them persmission to open a door and leave it inside the house?

they should have a box that u can attach to your house that they can dump stuff in and then lock it.

bobby666 · 01-22-2008, 05:49 PM

what an info !

quantum-x · 01-22-2008, 05:59 PM

if it was Aust Post, he never came.
I was chatting to them about it - the actual deliveries are handled by a different company - so to take the afternoon off, they just drop off the 'sorry we missed you' slips without attempting to deliver.

killermule · 01-22-2008, 08:32 PM

This happened to me

I was at home waiting and saw the delivery guy show up... like woot!! I come down stairs and go outside and he was leaving

he left a slip in the mail

no package the bastard.

Nah, this is Officeworks. The van & package did arrive, but he was about 3 hours past the quoted cutoff time.

I have a security camera and triggered recorder (plus time lapse) so after a bit of head scratching at not being able to see him around 5:30 I soon figured it out.

He's supposed to be here again today between 1pm and 4pm... I guess that means he'll turn up at 7

qxm · 01-22-2008, 10:27 PM

wdforty · 01-22-2008, 10:30 PM

Yeah I hate that, whenever I get up early it doesn't come till evening, whenever I sleep in they come first thing in the morning.

Best thing is to give them your mobile number

lmao

rowan · 01-23-2008, 03:03 AM

The next dramatic saga in this magnZzZzZerr where was I? Anyway, it's 9pm, I doubt he's gonna come. That's twice he's missed his mandated delivery window.

justsexxx · 01-23-2008, 04:06 AM

Damn that sucks. I always have the same. They come between 9am-5pm. Then when I leave for like 2 minutes to get some bread/milk whatever, they come in this fucking period

digifan · 01-23-2008, 06:59 AM

I cannot speak which even makes the situation funnier. People come, the bell rings, I gotta put up some clothes and they either leave or try all bells again. I am using an old bell know what mom used to use when Christmas came etc, an antique one and I can ring back... that sounds amazing to most lol.

alby_persignup · 01-23-2008, 07:51 AM

That sucks! when you're tired, i mean really tired you couldn't even hear loud noises.

The master bedroom is at the back of the house so it can be hard to hear the front door...

The one time I decided to have a nap on the spare bed in the FRONT room was when a criminal forced my front door. Someone was watching over me that day, otherwise he would have been inside the house before I woke up.

Scott McD · 01-23-2008, 09:17 AM

It's a bonus if anything i order actually arrives at all, never mind at a certain time...
