So, my iPod was supposed to be delivered today.
Nope.
What was delivered was a sheet of paper telling me that because I was out, they've ran off with my parcel and hidden it in some damp, dingy warehouse nearly 15 miles away from my house.
Now, to me it's quite obvious that during the day the recipitant is going to be out because they will either be at work in order to afford overpriced Apple gadgets, or go to school in order to get a good job in order to buy overpriced Apple gadgets.
I paid for delivery, not short-term storage. I want the parcel delivered to my house, not to some warehouse staffed by the same kind of people that work at Argos. (see Bill Bailey sketch entitled 'Argos')
Grrrr.
So now, because the collection depot closes stupidly early, I have to wait until Saturday morning to make the 40-minute car journey to attempt to retrieve my property.
Excuse me, but that's out of order. I paid £120 for an overpriced Apple gadget, I damn well expect it to be delivered. I don't care if TNT (said shitty delivery company) bid 2 pence cheaper than Royal Mail, because Royal Mail is the UK's delivery company.
What do all small villages have? They have a pub, and a small shop, which is sometimes included in the third essential shop, the Post Office. You know, so we can collect our things without having to waste half a day?
EVERYWHERE HAS ONE.
WHY NOT USE THEM?
GTFO AND LEARN TO POST, APPLE.
Bah.
Nope.
