Through our health insurance, we must do online prescriptions when it is for long term medicine. So, I place an order, and check out my shipping info. I live in NW corner of Ohio. Fucking dumb.

Back when I worked in distribution I dealt with a ton of DHL claims. They were terrible - one shipment was supposed to go from Ohio to Louisiana, standard ground. It ended up going to New York then Minnesota before arriving at the consignee 4 days late

It looks like someone at the West Alexandria post office fucked up and/or marked the package as refused and now it's on it's way back to the sender.

You probably typed the ZIP wrong.

Used my address that was stored in the system, that has worked every time.

Keep trying.

I'm still betting it's probably your fault since you're a fuckup.

USPS is circling the drain. I can see a future where it is completely eliminated.

I wonder how many terrorist plots have been unintentionally foiled by the USPS.

I buy stuff online constantly and don't think I've ever had anything disappear/get misrouted.

Hope this helps.

What really sucks is that your insuranse company make you use a mail in service that forces you to pay for a 90 supply of drugs up front. and in a lot of cases you could by the same prescription at CVS and a 30 day supply for less.












That and it has to be your fault because you suck.

I cant believe its still out there at all. If I would've seen ETB on the package, I wouldve thrown it out the window going down I-75.

This is why you go thru UPS or Fedex for anything. I know at UPS if a bad package is scanned and stacked in a truck my area's phone goes off, and they constantly hound you to get the misload. Misloads are honestly the worst word at UPS, seriously they will murder your first born if you put the wrong package in the wrong truck basically. About the only thing the union employees can actually get in a lot of trouble for

Injury is the worst word at UPS. Then maybe misload. They call the PD for every misloaded package in Toledo? In Columbus they would do it just for bags.

Yeah you're right about that and yeah Toledo is insane about their misload numbers and load quality. They harp on you like crazy if you don't hit pieces per trailer. I guess that's why it keeps winning #1 Hub in the Country though
