I haven't gotten uber eats at work, but considering the shit I'm dealing with for this stolen package I just... I need a burrito.

Seriously, Casetify customer service sucks. They're like "you need to contact the courier service to get confirmation it was lost" and it's like "I know it was stolen because the package ISN'T THERE!" Like I'm going in circles and I know the courier is gonna say "we delivered it so...".

My case/screen protector cost not even $10 and I had to sign for it but my $70 phone case doesn't need to be signed for. Ugh.

Now that no one is home most days, I'm just gonna have to get packages delivered at work.

Ugh, that sucks. We've had a few things stolen before (leaving something out the front of a large apartment, within a few meters of the footpath on a busy highway, is not a safe place) so I always get packages delivered to work now. When I get packages here it's like a little present to get me through the work day!

Haha love it. Yeah our little area isn't busy and I have this giant pillar but things are still noticeable there. I really want one of those mailboxes that you can put packages in. It'd be so cool.

Look into getting a Parcel Locker at your local AusPost, if that's an option, rather than having it delivered to a work address :)

I do have a parcel locker but I couldn't say to send it there.
