Ironically enough
I was emailed by HDNL this morning - they've lost my parcel too. Fucking wonderful.

You'd think it would be relatively easy to take a parcel from one place to another wouldn't you. Is it anything expensive?

You'd think wouldn't you?
Especially as they originally emailed me to tell me they had it in the depot, so technically they've lost it twice...

Thankfully not, but it's a return of some goods that aren't up to standard and I'd really rather not deal with the snooty guy I have to send them back to.

Having said that, this does now mean I get the delivery cost back, so the whole venture wasn't much of a loss for us.

god
you should see the issues i have with our courier companies sometimes. how hard can it be to drive a motorbike to an address and post something through the letterbox there?

i did not realise this request equates to genuine rocket science.

Rocket science isn't really that hard
It's all just geometry and simple mathematics, with a bit of chemistry.

Rocket engineering, on the other hand, is a right bastard of a job.

either one
is harder than pushing an envelope through a letterbox.

They're not taking one though are they
they're taking tens of thousands.
