Fking Ups

This is the 2nd time they have delivered my package to the wrong address in my hood. How can they miss the correct street name is beyond me. This time it was a spoon. What worries me is that I have another spoon in transit and I would be very perturbed if that one gets lost somehow.

This is the 2nd time in a week that a screw up has occurred with a spoon sent to me. The last one was the auctioneer sending me the wrong item, and not only that it was broken due to his poor packaging. Luckily the auction co was able to locate it and the recipient sent it to me. He is a policeman in Wesminister, CA. I told him if he had a choich, not to receive the broken spoon and get his money back.

Never before has a spoon been misdelivered to me or from me.

This does not make me happy!!

Try having an address that does not exist. UPS, FED-Ex, DHL, Yahoo maps, google maps, nada. It routinely takes an extra day or two and a phone call to get a package. Tried to have them update their system with the correct location, but after several attempts nothing has changed. The house has only been here since 1819.

If this is a modern spoon (ie, not pre 1898) then just call the ATF - they will find your spoon for ya!

I'm Filipino- I can ask all my relatives to see if they have any extras you can have I'll even find you the matching fork.
