Deliver Me

So yesterday one had the interesting situation of a package delivery experience - or perhaps one should say non-delivery experience.

Said package was one of those packages that Salsa Girl does not need to know about because expansions don't count for the "no new board games until the existing ones have been played a lot" rule.

An anonymous Amazonian deliverer sent an email saying the package would arrive today and be  delivered by 8pm in the evening. The email was sent at 4:35pm.

At precisely  4:36pm a second email was sent with the message stating that they had tried to deliver but nobody was home and sorry we missed you.

Looking around my place of work which doubles as my delivery address I found it quite hard to imagine how a half dozen people working at desks could appear to not be home to take delivery.

Still I believe I'll give the deliverers the benefit of the doubt as most of us were not really mentally still at work by that time of the afternoon.
