I ordered a new pup on e-bay on the same day that he was lost. All this time with me searching for pup, finding out that Jared's beloved pup was thrown away and getting a phone call from the wonderful post office, the new pup was making his way over from Colorado to New York.
The listing said 4-7 business days. It came with a tracking number and like a freak, I would press F5 every so often to refresh my page and see pup's whereabouts. I got excited when I saw that he was in the next town over from us. I thought to myself, Jared will get him today and I'll take pictures and post them on Facebook...until..
On no.
Pup was redirected to Brooklyn.
WTF?
So I called up the customer service number for the USPS...or like I call it...Hell. Because seriously...all the people that work for the USPS suck. They are miserable people who have an attitude and shouldn't be answering the phones. They need some people skills to say the least.
I tell this woman my tracking number and ask why it's heading to Brooklyn. She's nasty and curt and I just wish there was an option to reach into the phone and slap her dead in the face.
I ask her if the postal worker will deliver this package or return it so it comes back to me. She responds with a "how am I supposed to know" and "if he brings it back...then he brings it back".
So I got my case number. If the package goes missing then I have a number. What good does that do for me? I'll have to go on e-bay...get my money back and then start the process over again to search for a new pup.
I wake up today and go on to check my tracking number today. Who knows? Pup might be travelling to someplace exotic today. Maybe he got rerouted to Indonesia. You never know with these incompetent people from the USPS.
Phew! He's back to being one town over again. I check my mail today. Nothing. Jared did, however, get a cute gift from my friend Claudette. She sent a red dog collar with an engraved tag on it. The name? Shake Pup and our phone number. Isn't that awesome? Love it.
