Don't you just hate "That wait"?

Don't you hate the waiting for the Mailman(or woman) to deliver your stuff. It's awful thinking about how long it's going to take, when, in reality it's so soon!

So here I am, complaining to everyone about waiting for my new keyboard  :D. Do you have impatience when it comes to waiting for mail to be delivered, especially when you know its out to be delivered today?

Well when i ordered my 970 using amazon global, i probably called DHL literally every day for a whole week, and checked the tracking like 5 times a day every day.

 

So yeah, also the day it was going to be delivered and i was only told "will be delivered after 11am" and it got here by 4pm, i had no hair by the time they got here.

It's even worse living in apartments when the package is to big to fit in the mail boxes, so now I have to guess if they are going to deliver it to my door or the office  :P

That must be even worse, living on the west coast of the US is nice, since almost all of the tech/pc part company's are on the west coast too.

You hear the air breaks of the delivery vehicle and get so excited, then, your world stops, like a sad movie you can hear, in a villainous voice "It's the wrong truck sir!" then you cry...  :P

And then, the delivery truck comes, thinking you got your part, but when it's really your dad who bought some strange Indian medicine.

I'm fine with it up until the day of delivery. Usually, my items are shipped via UPS... which is fine, I've never had an issue with UPS breaking things or anything like that (unlike FedEx  :angry: ).

 

The problem with UPS, is that they can deliver things as late as 8PM. The latest I've received a package from them is 7PM, and the earliest, 1PM. So on the days where I have something "out for delivery", it's always a guessing game of when it will actually show up.

Oh no, my stuff arrives a week after his weird Indian medicine arrives. And I paid for express shipping.

The day of delivery definitely the issue. UPS delivered some of the parts for the PC I am using right now at 8:30 (pm). That's the time when I felt like I had to stay up until 10 just to be sure...
