Ah crap. Ordered something through JB for delivery. Both myself and the missus are working next two days (and will be out of the house). JB didn't give the courier authority to leave. We don't drive.
How fucked are we?
You'd have to give them a call if it hasn't been shipped yet and see if they can do something about it or at least find out what would happen to your order if they don't leave it.
Alas, it went out at midday. According to JB, if it isn't received in person, it goes to the depot for pickup.
Going to chat with boss about it tomorrow methinks.
cough cough you ok bro? You dont sound well!
Argh, drat, that's a good point, I've been having the beginnings of a sore throat today.
I think you mean Gastro. Harder to disprove, great excuse not to get a medical cert, and NO ONE wants to catch it.
24 hour gastro is a thing
Downside is that would take me out for a couple days - realistically I'd rather hold on to as many sick days as possible just in case (or more accurately, for when seasonal depression gets me)
