Hire more people, and if you have to, pay better. Yeaaaah see there's your problem right there. They don't want to do that. I currently work for an entity that does not care how dysfunctional and inefficient our operation is as long as the bottom line gets done. Hence we have lost great people and have overworked and basically ed over our current staff (including myself). And any increase in profit does not translate to the betterment of the workers, but rather just the very top. And there's really not anything we can do about it but quit, which we can't because of bills and what not. Corporate America at its finest. I LOOOOVEEEE YOUUUUUUUUU This describes my employer my username is referring to but I ended up quitting the job. I could use a name change, but I've been known as I Hate My Job for so long it would feel strange.

My UE Rock was lost by Amazon or the postal service. Last update was "shipped", and that was November 19. I'm hoping it will still arrive, but I'm not expecting it. First time it's ever happened with Amazon. It says it may be lost and may still arrive but I can request a refund if I want. I haven't yet. I'll wait on that as long as I can cause I want the figure.

We actually set a record last week for production, but extra profits or setting records doesn't mean they stop making us work shorthanded. Doing well only means we can be expected to do even more with what we have, as there's apparently no limit to how much work you can ask people to do.

I have 3 things I ordered off eBay that are In Transit Arriving Late. Is it annoying? Yes. Almost all of the stuff I have ordered from eBay the past couple of months have been like that. It's an annoyance but I'm used to it by now. Just be patient.

I ordered from RingsideC2 about 2 months ago(Oct 27.), what I never received . I bought, I paid and was waiting patiently for my figures. But nothing, the package did not move since Nov. 4. I have ordered in the past, it always arrived within 2 weeks. In fact, the order I placed later(Nov 16.) moves. I know it's covid and Christmas .. But is it my fault if a package doesn't arrive? So I opened a claim on PayPal !! I´m ready to pay the figures if they even arrive. I don´t want free figures... But when they never arrive why should I pay ? This is why buyer protection is for. This should be covered by your insurance?? And now RingsideC2 don't let me buy from them... They canceling now my orders!!! Worst haiku ever...

I think some of you are missing the point that a lot of stuff isn’t going to arrive before Christmas. Little kids don’t understand things like their Christmas presents getting lost in the mail. It’s just the icing on the cake for an incredibly crappy year. Now Christmas, on top of everything else, is screwed up because packages and presents aren’t arriving on time.
We are being asked to stay home and avoid going out as much as possible, so now people who took that advice and Christmas shopped online are being punished because their items aren’t arriving in time.
Yes, as adults, we can all “be patient” and understand we don’t need things like toys right this minute. Try explaining that to a little kid on Christmas morning though.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that the ones screaming the loudest over this aren't upset because their kid's UE7 Hollywood Hulk Hogan figure isn't going to be there on Christmas morning.

My 8 year old daughter asked for 1 specific thing for Christmas from Santa. I had to wait for it to come in stock. The second it did I ordered it for her. It was supposed to be here the 18th. Now delayed to the 28th. So I am going to have to come up with an excuse as to why Santa is bringing her gift later which will take a little bit of the Christmas magic away from a year where she has only been able to see her friends virtually. Doing school virtually. Losing relatives and being forced to watch their service virtually.

Attach a note from Santa to your daughter saying that one of the reindeer (make it one of the ones nobody cares about like Cupid or Blitzen) was being naughty and had kept her present in their stable, and he only just now found it and had it sent on via ElfPost.

They also said to do your Christmas shopping much earlier. I am pretty sure they said people should start Online Christmas shopping back in Sept or early Oct to avoid this. It sucks but it is the way the world is at the moment. Yeah there’s going to be items that kids/people wanted that weren’t in stock until Nov/Dec, but In those cases you’ll have to be creative finding an excuse. But hopefully it’s just this year. One of our daughter’s gifts won’t arrive until after Christmas and maybe not until New Year’s Eve. Luckily she’s 22 and will understand, but I can see how it would be tough on a parent of a younger child. On a happier note the Mezco One:12 Aquaman I ordered from Amazon yesterday and was scheduled to be delivered tomorrow arrived today. And the Mezco Supreme Knight PX Edition I had preordered from Big Bad that was supposed to arrive Thursday showed up yesterday. As for they should hire more help that won’t work the facilities are only so big and they have to maintain social distancing. And there not like they have extra space in the hubs to load more trucks even if there are extra vehicles. I know at UPS the trucks are packed with 6” of each other overnight to be unloaded of their pickups and then reloaded with the next days deliveries.

I was supposed to receive my Ultimate Fiend yesterday and then late last night I received a notification that the delivery date is now unknown. I’ve had a few items cancelled due to long shipping. I have a gift for someone lost in transit. You know what I’m going to do? Wait it out. It’s not in my control and it’s not an urgent issue. It’ll be ok. Your toys will get to you.
