#$%^@#!#$%!#%!@##%^&&&&&

What I am experiencing in Canada now, is very much like my first year in China - frustration, shocked, surprised, helpless.

You know Fedex, some company in Toronto is sending a cheque to my boss by courier. Actually, I also don't know why they want to use courier, regular mail would have reached us in 5 business days anyway.

So anyway, they sent out on Nov 10. Should have reached us on Nov 11.

I don't know which idiot, put in wrong address, so delivery cannot be made due to incorrect address. That was on Nov 14. Then I let the other party know, because she is the sender. She only gave me the tracking number to track it. Hallo... you sent it leh, shouldn't you be tracking and let us know the status? Instead, she asked me call 1800. Fine. That was yesterday, Nov 21. I didn't call last week because I thought she was dealing with it. Only yesterday that I find it 忍无可忍, I tracked it and I called and I solved it (well, at least I thought I solved the issue). Apparently they have the wrong street address. Anyway, happily waiting for the cheque today so I can bank it in for my boss so I don't have to hari hari go bank. Well, guess what, the status is still "incorrect address". I api pun ada. Called 1800 and it is an acha, speaking acha english (@#$%!) and I scolded her how can  you still have incorrect address? She got the guts to say this to me, "it is due to lack of buzzer information". I said I read online it says "incorrect address". She said there's a second line says "lack of buzzer info". I said I could not see your SECOND line!!!!!!! I told her I never have ANY issue with ANY courier company, they don't need buzzer they just come right in, the door is not locked, it is a commercial building, come in, take the lift to 3rd floor!!!!! She said, "ok, let me write down?". After like dunno how many seconds, she said, "you said you are on 3rd floor?" Wah I tell you, my api goes to roof already. I told her, "THE ADDRESS SAYS unit 310!!!! YES, 3rd FLOOR!!!!!!"

Blardy hell.... I black list Fedex already.

I black listed DHL before too... they got the guts to tell us we not at home on their 2 times delivery. We said we are at home. THey said  no body answered the door. At the end, I caught the uncle DHL guy (acha again) coincidently, he was ringing 50X instaed of 50Y. @#$%!!!!!@#$%!!@$#$!#!%@$@#$!!!

And then UPS once put the package outside the door, did not sign. Just leave the package out there.

I missed China kuaid systems. They never fail me in that so many years.

I think I officially hate Canada.

A similar thing happened to me in UK too. The courier man delivered my letter (with my cheque in it) to my neighbour - dropped it through the front door. Luckily I had a feeling something like that would happened and was looking out my window the whole day for the courier van and I saw him doing that - was not in time to stop him though. Had to get my letter from my neighbour when he came back from work. Imagine if I had not seen the courier man doing that - the tracking status would have been delivered but I wouldn't have gotten my cheque and I won't know which house it was delivered to.

With this thing called Internet banking these days, I'm surprised people still send cheques.

old law - the bank system here sucks. You cannot simply deposit money into other people's account. You need to give ID and sign and many other things. For big company, they need your direct deposit approval! Isn't this country terbalik in many things?

Today is the 14th day. Still no deliver. I asked the opponent to call back the delivery, and send us the cheque via regular mail. Fed up with Fedex! (hey, it rhymes! haha)
