I was supposed to get my Cassiopeia E-125 today.. but I wasn't home, and the four lockers were all full (assuming I deciphered the note correctly). FYI, if the recipient isn't home, they are supposed to put the parcel in one of the lockers and put the key in the person's mailbox. I just got a note in the mailbox. My problem is that I'm not sure what the note is saying and that I have no freaking idea where my Cassiopeia is!!
Here are scans of the note.

How am I supposed to figure out what they did with it??

Edit: Is it just me or is it funny how they say Canada is the sender?

Given the title of the note is "We Re-Deliver for You," and the absence of any notes to the contrary, it would appear to me that they'll attempt to deliver it again tomorrow.

The top says your door was locked, they will put it on the truck tommorow to deliver. If you're not going to be home.
Edit: didn't read your message carefully.

it seems to clearly say that they were 'out of lockers', which means there weren't any left. if you get one of these notes, you either have to pick it up from the post office, or leave it there for the postman to pick up with a scheduled redelivery date. it's not a complicated note. easiest way to do this is just to go to your PO tomorrow (address on back) and pick it up.

Whenever they give me that, I just bring the slip to my local station and pick it up. I don't remember them ever re-delivering.


BTW, that handwriting looks exactly like the handwriting I got on my recent slips.

You think that the US Postal Service is bad? Try riding Brampton public transit.

USPS does deliver on saturdays. How long have you lived in the United States?

Hmm... USPS has never missed a saturday delivery except on holidays. But usually, when they give you that card, it means that they're not coming back to redeliver that package and that they want you to pick it up at the post office. I sent a package to someone and I guess they never got the post card so USPS held the package for about 3 weeks until the person on the receiving end came to pick it up.

uh.. usps does deliver on saturdays.. not our fault that the mailman didnt deliver it to you. and why didnt you give them a call anyways.. i would have just to see what was up.. since you weren't really sure what the note was telling you (whether or not they were going to re-deliver or wanted you to pick it up).

and i did mention calling the post office.. they are open on saturdays as well..

I didn't call because I was expecting it to be delivered. I woke up at 11, decided to wait a few hours, then realized it was past 2:00, which is when they close.

Others try to help, and all you can do is call them assholes? No more help for you. Next time you do this, we will help you... to the door.
