mail-related venting

Dear Royal Mail,

When I come home and find a 'Sorry, you were out' parcel notification from you, my bad.

When I ring you up and ask can I please have it redelivered on Saturday 'cause I'll be home then and you tell me 'yes, no problem', I'll be mildly sceptical, but happy.

If you don't show up on Saturday, I growl a little, but am not surprised.

If I come home Monday evening, however, and find parcel in front of my door in the stairwell, I'll be pissed, 'cause, meh, not mine, bloody expensive, and (no insult to my neighbours who are weird but mostly nice), anybody could just have walked away with it, and then hummelchen would have sacrificed me to some chthonic deity and carved my bones into Scrabble chips or something...

Seriously, if you say you'll do it, do it right or not at all, kthnx!

No love whatsoever,

Me.

That sounds like the german post and the one in Uk are twins!. No better here.......So we should be used to that!

And no I´m only sometimes really, really pissed off to do sooooo bad things, but I must confess that you give me some ideas! ;-) (not for you but for somebody I know! :-D)

Yes, but at home I'd cycle there, pick up, cycle home, no trouble...

Well, if someone had filched *that* I'm pretty sure there would have been bone chips or something ;).
