It's been on hell of a fortnight. Two weeks back I decided to remove my ute tub liner and install some drawers. Removed the liner (it is for sale in the sale thread) and ordered the drawer runners and locks from IRS. They were to be delivered from Brisbane to the Gold Coast by courier by between Thursday and Monday. Bought all the aluminium, ply and carpet covering and started to assemble frame but could not build drawers without the runners (needed the exact sizes to ensure fit).
They had not arrived by Monday so a phone call to IRS told me they had only arrived in on Friday (Why was I not told?) but they would be despatched that day, Monday,and I would have them Tuesday.
Never happened so Wednesday, another phone call to be told the parts had left Monday so they would get on to courier (Star Track) and get back to me. Two hours later still nothing so another call and told courier had not got back to them. I asked for tracking number and rang Star Track as well as looked up tracking on web.
I found the parcels had been logged into our local branch at 8:32 am Tuesday but they did not know where they were currently. Another call two hours later and I was promised the parts would be delivered before midday Thursday. Again, didn't happen. Someone switched trucks and they finally arrived 3:00 pm Thursday and I had hoped to finish the drawers by Friday. I gave up in disgust and put it all aside until I am in a better frame of mind after a week in Brunswick Heads.
That's my rant for this week.
