Goddamnit I hate UPS and how utterly useless trying to arrange anything with them is. They have my power cord. Apparently they need an adult signature for the package. They only deliver on weekdays when GUESS WHAT. People who live here are at work. Going to their website gives me no options to hold for pick-up - only to return to sender. Calling them gives me automated messages telling me to go to their website. This is such BS I just want my new power cord arghhhhhh

I was going to do tags but now I am too angry to write. Perhaps I should sleep...

You know what, now that I think about it, I realize I'm lying. I HAVE had this happen to me before with a book, and what happened was that because I had a job/school and couldn't be home, it went out to the distribution center and because I was moving as well I just couldn't deal with that shit and I ended up never getting the book. Paid for it, but never got it cause it wasn't worth the hassle. I had to order another one later that shipped without having to be signed for.

In short, FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU having to sign for shit. You'd think this a common enough experience for people they'd quit. It can't be more efficient for them to try to deliver it a bunch of times.
