 despite the words sounding very different, CTT, the portuguese government post company, and my repeated attempts to redirect the delivery to PONTA DELGADA they sent it to PONTA DO SOL

even in my bad pronunciation i find it difficult to believe that their common first word really makes them that easy to confuse

according to the tracking, it's still on the other side of the island

ah the blackview bv4800 saga how i wish you would end

part of the problem now is that amazon doesn't allow delivery notes in the fucking shipment address

and they don't let me ask to have it shipped to a service center

i only have to be like 500m away and it's too bad, goes back to the DC for the next day, and i'm 100m away from my "front door" up on the road already as it is

anyway... i'm going to try and make some sense out of this today, will be heading out to the service center to ask if there is some way for me to just always have stuff going to my address go there

postal services in the communist evropeyski sosialistichni soyuz are so bad, seriously, wtf
