Oh fuck it

[ysobel]

So the overnight briefs I use come in boxes of 45. The company offers scheduled recurring deliveries. Last time I ordered, I went ahead and called them (yes it required talking to person, no way to set it up online) and asked for it to be shipped every 45 days.

I haven't had a shipping notification. so I checked. The call was 53 days ago.

They are in Illinois so currently closed. Meant to call earlier but forgot so I left a voicemail.

I have one left, which will be used tonight.

Priority overnight a) won't get here until Wednesday and b) costs $168.57

I am *fucked* and shaking and crying and I should have followed up sooner but I fucking trusted them and now I have nothing to use tomorrow night (well I have other brands but they don't have as much capacity) and I'm goddamn fucking pissed off

And they're probably going to say it got entered as 45 business days so is my fault or something.

Fuck.

Fuuuck.

Oh damn. Are the lower-capacity briefs a real big problem? (is the difference in capacity significant?)

Could you take steps to reduce your output for the next two days or is that not feasible? (I'm not knowledgeable about this - if, say, eating less will cause blood sugar/emotional/physiological issues, then obviously that would be a different aspect of the problem.)

Hope you work a solution out.

The difference in capacity will probably mean the difference between wetting the bed and not. Which at the worst just means extra laundry (but it's also embarrassing/humiliating for me, because reasons).

It's just frustrating, and also coming at a time when other unrelated shit is stressing me out so my ability to cope is low.

[tielan]

No, I fully understand the embarrassment factor. :/

and yeah, very frustrating.

It won't fix it now, but is it something you can subscribe to on Amazon? Sucks that they screwed this up so badly :(
