I ordered from Amazon just two days ago. They sent me a confirmation email that Ensenda ( their shipping company ) is going to deliver my order to my work today, between 8AM and 8PM. Got the tracking #. Checked on it, and nothing changed since 9 PM yesterday, when they arrived at Local Doc - Grand Prairie, TX.
Now is after 5 PM, I am sitting in the office and waiting. It sucks. FedEx /UPS has a better tracking system.
And who the heck is Ensenda anyway? I ordered many things from Amazon in the last few years, and never had anything delivered by Ensenda. Amazon uses it for some shipments for Amazon Prime, but my order was just regular Super Saver...
Ensenda has bad reputation anyway...

I shop almost exclusively from Amazon and have had stuff delivered by Ensenda many times. Never really had a problem with them. The interesting thing is that they actually knock on the door. UPS just walks up, puts the package down and splits. (the iPhone was from Sprint and delivered via UPS)

Well, I have 2,5 hrs more to wait. I wish they would not deliver it that late... However, can't complaint, because they are still in the time frame.

There is NO excuse for stealing, there are ALWAYS some type of job available.

I'd go to work cleaning the bathroom of a McDonalds if it meant putting food on the table for my family.

Job = get up, shower, dress properly, show up at work on time and actually do something for the money, preferably with a smile on a face.
Stealing is just so much easier and exciting!

Something that hasn't been mentioned here is to check your money...counterfeitering is rampant this time of year. I wouldn't accept $100.00 or $50.00 dollar bills right now either not even from a bank. I have a relative that works for a local store in SA and she has been told to check EVERYTHING $20.00 and up.

I suspect I may have had my UPS deliveries stolen from my porch this afternoon. After seeing this Packages stolen from porches in NE Side | News - Home newscast last week, it did raise my awareness to the possibility. But, I'm home on vacation and UPS usually shows up around 5. I would be there to receive my packages thus allaying major worries about it. Or so I thought? Come early evening when I did not see my packages/UPS, I tracked them to find: "Delivered. On porch, 1:30 pm" ACK!! I really hope this is just a clerical error and my items are still on their way to me, but I can't help to fear they've been stolen.

Also could have been left at the wrong addy - happens pretty often!

Yes sir, that would be a nice ending to this story!
But... a check with the adjacent neighbors and both telephone UPS tracking and contacting a UPS agent indicate delivery at my correct address. I've been directed to contact the merchant in order to initiate a lost package investigation at this point.

Here is the process should anyone else find themselves in the situation:
UPS: Lost Package Claims Process

I suppose my above post seems, admittedly, quick to be accusational. However after having the front door of my home kicked in and my longhorn and feral hog skulls stolen from my landscape in 2 separate incidents just this year. The suspicion does not go without at least some degree of justification.

Of course, I'd be most happy to have it work out your way. Thanks!
