We Used to be Cool Amazon
Mar 18th, 2008 by Syzlak
Then you screwed me over when I’m trying to fix the fact that I didn’t have any presents for Current Future Ex-Mrs. Syzlak. At around 9:45 in the AM, I was presented a box from Amazon. Filled with glee, I emailed CFEMS (pronounced Sea-fem-iss) and told her that her birthday might be happening soon (the real one being almost a month ago). Now you’re making me look bad, Amazon!
Why do I look bad? Because of this:
See, I live in Portland, OR. Hell, in one of my posts from last week, I went so far as to say that I’m “from here.” So why in the hell are my packages halfway between Everett, WA and PDX??!?!? Don’t you read my highly significant and clearly popular blog?
You’re making me look bad Amazon…and as a white guy, I’m enjoying hating you right now.
Interestingly, while writing this another package arrived (which is amazing as it was supposedly 200 miles away just minutes ago). Funny, when you click the button that says “group my packages together in one shipment,” you expect that to actually happen. Way to go, chumps.
This isn’t entirely their fault. It’s also partially DHL’s. Wouldn’t it be more efficient to have the same driver deliver all 3 packages at the same time? And people wonder why we’re in a recession…
