Online shopping moral dilemma
« on: August 20, 2015, 01:54:32 PM »
Ordered something online. It was coming via Royal Mail Signed for delivery.

Found it here last night when I got back (chucked over the wall  ::))

According to tracking it has not been delivered or signed for  rubschin:

Say nothing  angel1  or get another one  eveilgrin:

My natural inclination is to do nothing but the PO around here is useless and getting worse. Claiming non delivery would punish the bastards as they would, I assume, get the flak. Tired of delivery by bowling............ Banghead

Going from past exploits if Nick is ordering online then there will already be more than one on the way...  rubschin:

1. Postie knows he did deliver, it just wasn't signed for.
2. Postie will get flak/bollocking/sack as a result.
3. Postie will be well built with a 2-digit IQ and knows exactly where you live.

Get on and claim non-delivery.

Ah but because he threw it over the wall (which he should not have done) how does he know that someone didn't see him & steal it ?
Go for it.
I couldn't ask for better friends. I could ask for more NORMAL friends, but not better ones.

But was it actually stolen?

What Nick rather have had - the parcel or a note saying pick up at post office?

Should have gone for pick up at shop service?
Well, whatever, nevermind

That has potential for a pay per view event:

And in the blue corner, you'll have seen him before in classics like 'don't poke that badger', 'ooooh look a hornet's nest' and 'my kitchen is on fire', the VP's very own master of disaster.......Nick the Ginger Shambles.
