I guess this could be a “gripe” but it’s more like a “huh?”
My old laptop died so I ordered a new one. The company insists on the package being signed for, which makes sense, since nobody wants the headache of “I got it/I didn’t get it” etc., for an item of this value.
And UPS sends me a notice saying it’s coming tomorrow but I have an option to “Sign Now”.
An fascinating inversion of the “I’d happily pay you tomorrow for a hamburger today” principle.
At least they didn’t make you go to a CVS to pick it up.
The option to sign now is for your soul, not the laptop.
I had a package delivered via FedEx the other day, that was supposed to require a signature. The FedEx guy knocked on the door, and handed me the package. I asked if I need to sign anything, and he said no, he just needed to see someone and they did not require signatures anymore because COVID. As he walked away I thought, you just handed me the package, what’s the difference if you handed me that tablet to sign as well?
You don’t hand the package back.
Maybe YOU don’t.
Oh, that’s different!
signs away
