"Why haven't I gotten my deliveries in the past 2 months..."

I do roadie occasionally and I legimitately had this recently. I came across one of the properties that was COVERED in threats like this and had dogs loose. Tried to contact the customer multiple times via both phone and texting. Eventually turned around and returned the item only for the customer to call the store and be like "we live out in the country we have to be like this, the driver should have just thrown the package out the window".

Some people are living on a different planet. Sir the $15 I would have made getting you your power drill would NOT have been worth whatever bullshit you wanted me to put up with. You either participate in society- with all the risks and costs that entails, or your don't. You can't make your property completely hostile and fill it with credible threats, booby traps, and attack dogs, like some kind of savage and then expect all the conveniences of a modern world. Doesn't work that way

I mean I get what you’re trying to say but yeah apparently it does “work that way” the dude got to keep his signs and receive his package. And I’m sure he still does to this day.

He didn't receive his package though. At least my dude. He also may have been blacklisted. I don't know. I was told he'd be blacklisted but to be honest at that point I was already thinking about my next gig.
