Mutterings, ramblings, and other assorted babblings (Best viewed @ 1680 x 1050 resolution, or somewhere thereabouts)

Remember last November...

...and the ordeal I had with the postal service? I'd shipped my studio lighting to California (2-3 day Priority Mail), and I went round and round with "Customer Support" for a week, and come to find out it had gone to the post office in the guy's town, and stayed there for two weeks, and they never even sent a notice to the guy, and they didn't find it until I filed an insurance claim? Well, guess what?

I hope the USPS really does go broke and they all fucking starve in the streets like rats.

I found an 18-70mm 3.5-4.5G lens on Ebay last week. Picked it up for a good price. Priority Mail. Should have gotten it Wednesday. Come to find out, it went back to the post office in the sender's town. And they can't find it. Imbeciles. Idiots. Morons. I mean, how hard is it to give someone a box, and tell them to take it to someone else? 2-3 day delivery. Paid 11 bucks for that. It left Euless, went to Ft Worth, then back to Euless. What...the...fuck? I called Euless this morning (after playing email tag with "Customer Support) for three days), hung around the house most of the day, and the second I leave to go pick up some printer cartridges, they call back. Leaving a garbled message that God couldn't understand. Evidently, they...can't...find it. Asshats. It must take a certain level of dumbassity to wotk at the post office. "Here's my box, dude...and here's $11 to lose it." THAT, they can do.

I'm glad I pay my bills online. 'cuz I will never, ever use the postal service for anything ever again.
