Luggage Update
Yesterday: baggage person tells me the luggage will arrive in the morning and it’ll take 3-4 hrs meaning I should expect it around noon.
Today 1pm: I grab lunch nearby just in case the luggage gets delivered. It doesn’t. I call the automated service and it says it’s with the delivery company and will arrive in 4-6 hours.
3pm: My friends and I go to midtown then up to lower Central Park. If the luggage comes, they’ll call.
5pm: Still no word. I call and automated service says as of 5:20pm, the delivery company has it and should arrive in 4-6 hours.
7pm: I call again and get a real person. They find out for me that it should be there in half an hour.
7:45pm: I call again and they said there was a delay and I should get my stuff in 20mins.
8:45pm: I call again and they say it’ll be there by 11pm. I have a dinner with a friend at 9pm and had I expected this, I would have bought clothes by now because I’m feeling nasty. Now I’m pissed. I get the delivery company’s number. I also ask how it takes them 10 hrs to deliver something (they told me it was on the truck by 10am). They said there’s a lot of bags but TEN HOURS?
9:30pm: I call the delivery company and ask them to deliver directly to the restaurant. They say they can’t change the address.
Midnight: I’m kind of resigned at this point but call again and they say they’ll be there within the hour.
12:30am: I finally get my luggage. There’s still a bunch of luggage in the van. It’s now 14 hours … I feel for the others.
I’ve never been happier to see my suitcase but I am not a happy camper.
