UPS is not there.

Currently watching I'm Not There, while waiting for a call from UPS.

I've been waiting for a week. They made one attempt to deliver a package to me last Wednesday, but I was in the shower. I spent the next day chilling at home waiting for the second delivery attempt, which was fruitless. I made some calls last friday, and was assured that my shipment was on route for delivery, so again, I waited. A sinking suspicion that this was a lost cause was creeping over me.

Monday, more calls to UPS were met with apologies, and more false promises that a request for the shipment to be resent or something or other.

Tuesday (yesterday), nothing. I was told to call first thing Wednesday morning to get things straightened out for my shipment to be delivered today. A call was made as soon as the UPS offices opened, at which point I got more apologies, and was told I would be contacted once they figure out where my shipment is. Where?!

If I was just awaiting some kind of eBay purchase, or an order from Amazon, I'd be like, whatever. It will come when it comes. Or if it was the Xbox replacement cord that is on it's why, I could care less. But I'm currently waiting for contracts for some important freelance work that has been on hold for a few months. I kinda need these documents last month, let alone last week when they were sent to me.

Note to self. Fuck UPS.
