My dad mailed me a package and the tracking showed it was delivered at 8:11 AM yesterday. We didn't get it so I confirmed with my dad the address where it was sent. He sent it to our previous address where we haven't lived for four years. My dad has sent us things to our new address. He just messed up this time.
Our old address is just 10 miles away so we started driving there to check. Meanwhile, my daughter texted our old next door neighbor to see if she could ask the new people living in our old home if they got the package. They didn't.
We had my dad send us the tracking number so we went to the post office to see if they could help at all. After doing something on the computer in the back, the man said the address on the package was something totally different than my current address and my previous address. I said "you mean my dad addressed the package to this other address??" The postal worker said no, someone at the post office changed the address on the package and had it sent to this other place. He told me the address and asked if we ever lived there or if we know anyone who lived there (no and no).
He said he would talk to a supervisor and would need to "fill out some forms". He said he would have the mail carrier go back to where the package was dropped off and get it. He said it was left in a parcel locker at this place, which is a mobilehome park. But the tracking says it was left on the "porch/front door", but there was no indication of which mobilehome. The man from the post office is supposed to call me, but I haven't heard anything yet. Isn't this just so very bizarre? Admittedly the first mistake was my dad sending it to the wrong address, but if it had gone there I could have likely easily gotten it back.
My dad went to a craft fair and bought us a queen size homemade quilt. I'm sure it was expensive and not cheap to mail either.
