They’ve optimized their delivery for maximum disappointment at all steps. I don’t usually care about when my packages arrive, but they’ve had me on a huge hopium inhalator for the entire week.
Got packaged friday, thought “surely they’ll send it out within a maximum of 2 days, and it’ll be here by thursday (which would be 5 business days)
Then I got my shipping e-mail from Valve wednesday evening. Which of course means they’ll pick it up within a reasonable timeframe, right? No, of course not. They sent it out super late yesterday evening, and at the exact time that it could maybe just maybe, reasonably make it to be delivered today. But it of course didn’t and now here I sit, hoping that I’ll be able to get it to a package shop to pick it up, since they do deliveries there on saturdays as well. Still sipping that sweet hopium. And I know I’m not even one of the worst cases, which is just laughable at this point.
