Today's Canada Post rant involves bad service and a direct lie. I'm expecting a document, which was shipped from Ottawa. It's important, so I've been checking the tracking regularly.

This morning, I got the paper, and the card wasn't on the doorknob. I went out about 1.5 hours later, and the card was on the doorknob. Since I was reading the paper/eating breakfast/relaxing in the front room, I'm 100% sure the delivery person didn't ring the doorbell or knock. Thanks.

The best part is, they marked it in their system as "out for delivery" and "no one home, delivery notice left" yesterday. So the guy had it, and didn't deliver it yesterday. He marked it in the system as delivered to the post office this morning. I went there, and of course they don't have it. So he was too lazy to stop by the office with the stuff to leave it.

This was after I paid extra to have it mailed with a service that guaranteed delivery yesterday. But I can't claim the refund associated with the guarantee, because the delivery person lied on the form.

Summary
1) Held it an extra day before making a delivery attempt
2) Lied about attempting the delivery a day earlier
3) Didn't knock/ring bell, just left notice
4) Held it at least one extra day before dropping at post office
5) Lied about dropping at post office

Clearly these people are doing such a good job we should pay them more money.
