Three Cheers for Amazon

I've been complaining about Amazon's one to two-week delivery of whatever I order. Yesterday, I ordered a bathroom rug that was on sale. I'm receiving it today! Maybe Amazon has gotten its act together, and my orders will arrive faster. Thanks you, Amazon!

Rules for delivery people everywhere (Amazon, UPS, FedEx, USPS, etc)

1. If you want it bad, you get it (delivery) bad.
2. If you want it real bad, you get it real bad.
3. If you want it worse, you get it worse.

Part 2, how to make it bad:

1. Miss the promised delivery date.
2. Post on-line that it was delivered when it wasn't. But deliver it the next day and deny there was a problem.
3. Turn around in your driveway, causing unfulfilled expectations.
4. Post a picture on-line showing it was delivered, but to the wrong house.
5. Post routing on-line showing the package rerouted to distant locations.
6. Stop posting routing, show nothing.

We’re slowly moving into the realm of sci-fi. The day is coming that when we click on “place order”, immediately the doorbell will ring with the package on the front step.

what a bunch of Whiners! If you are so tired of UPS,Amazon, USPS , Fed Ex, delivery times, get off your duff go to this store, that store and the other store, look at prices, then go back to the other store and get you're all important item and take it home with you today! These companies, ship millions of packages daily and do a very good job of getting your purchase to you. Those of use in the States have, I would bet, the fastest delivery on the planet for the size of our country! IMHO!

Amazon is convenient. There is a cost for convenience, but on the other hand, convenience saves you from running (driving) hither and yon, only to find that the item is out of stock locally.
