Thieves

I wrote the other day that I ordered a wireless mouse. Yesterday I went to check on the delivery status of my order and I was quite surprised to find out that had been delivered on Thursday. Well, when I came home from work on Thursday there was no package at my door or on my balcony. I tried to put in a claim with UPS but they said that the shipper had to do that. I called the company I ordered the mouse from and they are going to put a trace on the package, which will take about 8 business days, and if it doesn’t turn up anywhere they will send a new one. This time they will require a signature at time of delivery.

You see… I live in a condo complex and not exactly the best people live here. When I first moved in I ordered a webcam and it was left at the door and stolen. That time the little thieves left evidence.. the opened box with my name and address on it.. right in front of my door. The box was empty. This time there was absolutely no trace of the package at all. I guess they figured it was one of those small business opportunitites.

This will be my last year in this place. When my lease is up we will either buy or rent a house. No more condo complexes for us!

Did you know?

Did you know that some companies keep strict tabs on their vehicles? Vehicles such as delivery trucks, taxi cabs and armored trucks sometimes have gps tracking devices in them which allows the vehicle owners to make sure deliveries are being made on time and cabs are where they are supposed to be.

They’re also sometimes used on wildlife to allow scientists to study its activities and migration patterns. Some cars are equipped with it too which allows the authorities to find the vehicle if stolen. GPS has many good uses.
