Man, Canada Post Doesn't Give A Fuck
I've been checking my mail every day for 2 weeks waiting on a package, it was mailed March 7 and supposed to be delivered on March 21 which is 10 business days. Today I went to check it again (16 business days later) and the delivery guy was there putting packages into the community mail box. I took a look in the large parcel slot and saw my package in there......cool, it must have been delivered just now. It was an older Asian couple delivering the packages and he had all the parcels in the trunk of his car.......pretty ghetto but okay.
I pointed at my package in the large parcel slot and told him that's mine, it's got my name on it. He told me I'd have to wait until he closed up all the boxes and then I can use my key to get it out.
me - That's my package right there.
him - You'll have to wait I close it, then you use your key to get it out.
me - No, I don't have a key to that one, only you have the key, I need to use the key you give me to open it, it's not in my box.
him - If you don't have your key, you'll have to go home, get your key, then come back and open it.
me - No, you don't understand, my key doesn't work in this box, I need the post office key you have, I need you to put the key in there so I can get it out.
him - You can't use my key, if you use my key, they complain.
me - Okay.........ah.....ya, no. Nevermind, I'll wait until you're done and then I'll use the key to open it.
- 5 minutes of his wife staring at a package and walking back and forth in front of the mailboxes -
me - Are you almost done here?
- no response -
At this point he starts walking towards his car and closes his trunk, then opens his door.
me - Oh hey, how am I supposed to get the package out?
him - You have to go home, get your key, then open it up.
me - No, I can't get it out, are you.......hello? Are you leaving?
So then I walked up to the car and knocked on the passenger side.
me - Are you going to help me or just drive away?
him - I tell you, you have to go home, get your key and come back to open it. You can't use my key.
Then his wife starts babbling nonsense at the same time, I got 2 Chinese adults both yelling at me and I can't understand neither of them.
me - I don't think you're understanding me, you got to listen to what I'm saying
his wife - You need to call the post office and get a new key. Ya, ya. Sank you! Sank you! Ya.
And she shut the door and he drove away. What the fuck? So I'm guessing my package probably did arrive on the proper day 9 days ago and I just never got a notice, or maybe it arrived today, who knows. Nobody seems to care and if it's not the employee's problem, they certainly don't care. How do you have 2 municipal servants whom can't even properly converse with the residents of that municipality? How did this happen? Is the government so hard up for employees that it hires people that don't care about the customers?
