Service with a Smile

at 11/20/08 8:01AM
I got confirmation yesterday that the US Postal Service is not so much good at the service part. Every box we get from them is severely damaged. It is either crushed or has holes punched in it. Luckily we have only received one package with damaged contents, but the boxes should still arrive intact, in my opinion. So, yesterday I went in person (after Aaron called in his get things done voice) and took them our latest mangled box. The guy told me how he thinks they're getting crushed, and then proceeded to tell me that I should just encourage everyone to upgrade the shipping and insure everything. :P :::::: Obviously UPS is the way to go if I want to make sure something fragile arrives undamaged. So, for all of you who keep getting boxes that are looking rather sad, please feel free to chew out your local post office. Maybe they will eventually improve their "service".

This morning, Google let me pick a pretty theme for my Gmail. It's pink and has cherry blossoms on it. I think that's nice.

Not much going on. Aaron and I went fruit shopping last night at the fancy grocery store. Yum!

Rocky road ice cream is good. That is all.

    good luck with baby! I don't know that ups is any better. I work receving, and Mr. UPs rolls and tumbles the big boxes so he don't have to carry them. One day he did that to one, that I knew was a picture, with glass in frame. I said something about him not breaking it. His reply was ups has good insurance to cover it.

    Our post office here is obscenely nice. All the clerks are happy and helpful. I keep wondering what's wrong... :)
