That's what I was thinking but maybe the parcel weighed a ton and he couldn't be arsed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've found collections are much more unreliable than deliveries, not sure how payments work for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a text this morning to say they'd be here between 12:35 and 1:35. At 1:28 I got a text/email saying they'd missed me and will be back tomorrow. At about 1:22 a DPD van drove down the street and past my tenement. On the webpage for the delivery there's a picture of the front door and a fence and car in front of it, this being the only car in front of the fence and there being a gap in the fence about ten feet to the left of where the picture was taken. Will it be bad form if the same guy turns up tomorrow, actually makes it that extra ten feet, and I call him a lazy c**t? Got a text right now to say between half three and half four. How do people live making so many online orders and deliveries and returns? I've spent two days doing this and I want to die 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise you need the box supplied though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've spent two days doing this and I want to die On my day on the road collecting delivery, (perth), I always chapped the door, never do that shite you explained, however the collect side was brutal. Pickup, knock, hi here........oh sorry not ready can you give me 5 mins, nae. or pickup, parcel not wrapped, wrapped in paper, wrapped in a way as soon as you pick up it falls out the wrapping..... For the time that took somedays, it was worthless, as I would end up missing other deliveries.. (Remember we can only drive for so many hr) for me it was 10 hrs. Looks like a I am here make sure your ready next time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I am selling some furniture on FB Marketplace, a woman had agreed to buy it and come round today but has now gone completely silent, no response to a message asking if she's still coming. I don't even mind if she doesn't buy it, it's the weird silence that I find strange. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I'm currently eating a pot of Graham's brand yoghurt whose label proudly tells me the packing is even greener! because it uses less plastic than a standard pot. It's a 450g tub and it doesn't have a lid. The planet's fucking dead anyway, stop mildly inconveniencing me when I'm surrounded by neighbours who put paddling pools and old bed frames in the recycling bins. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
