Yay I finally got some movement on the auspost parcels! I lodged an enquiry for the 3 that were in transit in my suburb over a week ago, even though they wanted me to wait until 10 business days. I ordinarily would wait, but I decided to lodge it anyway cause I figured it would be an easy fix and I know they've done it before. Got a notification they're all ready to collect

The one from the NBN say around at sunshine for a few days then last night for 3 separate scans each about an hour apart in Dandenong South (again), and is now "in transit to next facility". I really should've just let them try to deliver it, fail, then take it to the post office. Trying to redirect it has easily added about a week at this point, considering it was sent express post

All the furniture is pretty much here now. Just waiting on the dryer, which is due within 2 hours. Now to figure out how the actual fuck a flat pack couch works

E: I just got a call from the post office. They're upset that my parcels have been there for over a week and I haven't picked them up. Apparently they have no room and want me to come get them today or they'll return them back to Kmart. I mean fair enough I guess, but jeez, you guys are the ones that didn't scan it in properly lol, I don't think it's really fair to blame me for it

in my house, anything flat pack involves booze. Lots of booze.

Oh I'm not saying its the RIGHT solution. Its just the solution we have haha

I second your solution, and it definitely being the best solution.

Just a shame Baku can't follow your advice yet. Perhaps one of us should do a beer run?

Sounds like the right solution to me

In 93 days I will let you know
