I've switched shifts with coworkers because I knew I'd be getting a UPS delivery. I've written notes begging the UPS guy to leave packages at the top of my stairwell. He won't.

My last UPS delivery was some pedals from IRO. Luckily I had the day off when the package was scheduled to be delivered. I know the UPS guy always comes around my apartment between 5ish and 7ish in the evening so I made sure I was home and waiting by 4pm. Around 8:00 I really started to lose my mind. I hadn't eaten anything all day so I figured I'd walk to the market on the corner to get a bite. I could hear the UPS truck at my apartment from in front of the market, I figured. When I opened my front door to leave for the market I saw a "We missed you" notice stuck to my door. I couldn't believe it. I got on my bike and rode around ravenously in search of a UPS truck. About two blocks away I found the UPS guy making a delivery. I asked him if he had a package for me and he sure did. I signed for it and went back to my apartment and put on my new pedals.
