No, because I’ve avoided buying anything that gets delivered by UPS.

UPS’s lawyers won’t let them leave things at our building without a signature because who knows how long ago someone either scammed them or had someone actually steal something and made UPS cover the costs. Fine, fair enough, but in this small collection of starter homes it’s very unlikely that the person still lives here and FedEx (glorious FedEx), USPS and that other guy with the yellow leave things all the time and I’ve never had any problem. They also won’t give you a delivery window so if you work for a living you literally can’t receive packages. If you have a small car and take the bus to work, you literally can’t ever order anything too big to get sent to work or picked up from the sorting facility. It’s infuriating.

Anyway there’s my whinge.
