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!
Housemate is home late so I said I'd do kitty medicine. Bad idea that was, the little bugger screamed like a banshee before bitting my thumb, and for all that we only managed one pill.
Not one single drop of rain here near the CBD. I even had to water some outdoor pot plants.
There’s a r/Place style shenanigan to join called canvas. Check this instance front page to join. I’ve placed two pixels and I’m puffed🫠
Heading to the office today as a favour for a colleague who needs me to do some testing. Saves him coming in from way out wherever he lives and I'm just a tram ride up Collins St from work. I think this might be the first Friday I've been in the office since March 2020...
Meanwhile.. my calendar for the day (image):
Hmm I'm suddenly getting a craving for chicken nuggets, wonder if I should pop by the Aldi to grab some on the way home today.
Eagerly waiting for it to tick past noon so I can have lunch. Slightly rough morning where my laptop shat itself 5 mins into a one on one meet and greet and now asked to be postponed. Need a bit of comfort.
