A couple weeks ago a damn vendor sent my heel-toe shifter requiring a signature and I'd just missed the brown truck the first delivery day. Next day i decide to take off work to wait it out then realize I could sign the delivery notice. Get to work and couldn't stand it so I leave and race home to find I'd missed the delivery, again, and had a new notice on the door! Pissed I called the 800# the rep says sir, if this block was checked we don't accept the sticky note. I'm like what location is the driver, he just left. Sir, we can't give out the drivers location for security reasons. Dude, honest I'm not going to rob him! LOL

After I cried for a minute they gave me the 3 street names that were all on his delivery route for the next 15 minutes and within about 5 miles from me. I haul *** looking for these streets and there HE came, it was like an ambush! LOL the driver says, I thought I recognized your truck and says, sorry I missed you.

It was a hell of a couple days playing tag. I just wish the vendor had let me know they were sending it requiring signature.

Just thought I'd provide you a little reading while you wait it out. it sux!!

I work for UPS and it always amazes me how many people come up to me as I'm walking in or out of a place and ask if I have there stuff. Usual reason is they are trying to hide it from the spouse. haha
