Fucking #couriers. Apparently to #APC “next business day” means for 2 parts of a consignment dispatched by the sender and received by APC at the same time means one box next business day and the other “some time later in the week probably “ 😠

Dear courier companies. The letterbox is right there.

There is nowhere in this universe where this standard of "delivery" is considered acceptable. FIX IT! FFS - employ more drivers if they don't have time to do the job properly.🤦 Delivery would have been faster, and much less "couldn't be arsed" had it been chucked in the regular post. Probably cheaper, too.🤬

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

By deity, I'm an old grump today! 😂

I'm not happy (understatement) with DHL.
Apparently they "couldn't access my address" this evening.
In truth I'm pretty sure the driver was running late and thought 'sod it, let's take this back to the depot'.

I've written to the sender, and filled in a comment on the DHL website - neither of which will result in any resolution.

I rarely have the courier issues other people report, so this is frustrating particularly as I thought DHL were on the reputable side of crap.

This is an important decision: food #couriers in #Finland recognized as employees by the Supreme Administrative Court.

I wrote some quick reflections on the decision and the struggle for courier worker rights.

COURIERS: Stop asking "How did we do?" every single time you deliver something.

If the thing was delivered, congratulations, well done on participating, have a sticker. No medal because delivering things is your raison d'etre, after all. It's what we pay you for.

If it was damaged, broken, late or not delivered at all - THEN ask me how you did. I will gladly explain in short, easy to understand words.
