I think they are getting worse.  I had a package the other day that said it was placed on the front porch or near the front door.  There was no picture.  Sometimes they leave packages by the garage but it wasn't there either.  Support said I had to wait three days and check with my neighbors for it.  It was already late.  Husband found it near the far corner of the house.  No where near the front door, the porch, or the garage.  Now I guess I have to do a perimeter check even when it's full dark.  (I had the porch light on.)

It's not even the holidays yet so I don't anticipate things being better any time soon.

Not sure I can anymore... the 'tell us how we did' thing is gone.

Yeah, my guy didn't even wait twenty seconds for us to get to the door. I get they're in a rush but I'd rather they take the package back to base rather than do stuff like this.

Thank you for mentioning a while back that you can pause your Audible account.  (I am pretty sure it was you.)  My library had gotten pretty big so I paused mine so I can use get caught up without being charged for three months.   

When we give power to words, perhaps more people need to be more selective regarding where they place that power.

I do all of my own stunts, but never intentionally.

I sometimes wonder if Clark Kent ever wore a really shitty Batman costume to the office Hallowe’en party.
