What is the deal with package delivery? You’re home, you’re *right there*, you hear the truck, you practically see the guy, and then… the dreaded ‘Sorry We Missed You’ slip. It’s like a taunt! A paper-thin accusation of your absence. And then you have to go pick it up! I mean, isn’t the whole point of delivery that I *don’t* have to go somewhere? It’s like they’re saying, ‘We’ll bring it almost all the way, but for the last mile, that’s on you.’ It’s an elaborate game of hide-and-seek, only the ‘seek’ part involves driving across town. I paid for *delivery*, not *almost-delivery-plus-my-own-pickup*. What are we doing here?
