The good news is that USPS has put considerable effort into a new tracking system.
The bad news is they might have overcorrected.
I signed up for email notifications for the status of my package. I’ve been getting 4 emails a day telling me where the box is. I didn’t think there was such a thing as too much tracking information, but they are giving it their best shot.
I’m worried my inbox is going to label them as spam soon.
- Dave just ran your package to the conveyor!
- Your package is on the truck.
- Steve is filling the truck with fuel. Pretty sure it’s diesel.
- We can confirm it was diesel.
- Steve just crossed the state line. If your package was contraband you have now committed a federal crime.
- Your package is at a rest stop. Steve was sleepy.
- Steve is back on the road! Currently listening to Fallout Boy. Do you like their new song? I think it’s catchy.
- Your package is now in Canada.
- Just kidding! It’s in Kansas.
- Steve is on your street!
- Steve is in your driveway!
- Steve is at your door!
- Knock knock.
- Who’s there?
- Your package!
- Your package who?
- Orange you glad I didn’t say banana? Also, sign here.
- Mission accomplished. Enjoy that dildo.
- Just kidding. We don’t know if it is a dildo. The x-ray was inconclusive.
- I’m just emailing you to say hi.
