meanwhile I have one which was shipped yesterday from somewhere over the east side, I forget where exactly, went through Tullamarine last night and should be arriving at my front door of my parents place out in Melton any moment now (status is onboard for delivery as of 30 minutes ago)
sometimes they just get it right
bring me my weeeeeed mr postman
Mines on there too. Let's see who gets theirs first.
Ps not weed. Passport
A race! It's on like donkey kong.
You're going down bitch!
Mine just arrived!
Good game. π€ π
Mine just arrived as well!
Haha having MC delivered feels like I'm doing something illegal. Even when I go to Prahan to pick it up at the pharmacy, I still feel so judged. Like the po-po are gonna rush in and arrest me as part of a sting. Which is dumb, I have TGA approval lol.
But MC being delivered to your door - we truly are living in the future
What a time to be alive! I didn't feel any weirdness going to pick mine up from St Kilda BUT I was on my toes because where I parked felt like a slightly sketchy area and I figured scumbags might watch for people coming out of the dispensary and target them. Felt super sketchy like that around some of the US dispensaries I went to over there too.
Never actually had a problem though.
Lol I feel that way walking out of Amcal in Prahan. I just beeline back to the train station lol. I don't want ANYONE to look at me while I'm carrying my Green Gold tyvm hahaha
I have heard of posties nicking MC packages, but that was when MC was picking up in popularity. Haven't heard anything of the sort since, so I imagine they've cracked down on that. I personally haven't had any issues with either delivery or pickup, it's a seamless processs, end to end.
Reliable sources report that Sunhine is semi sane and Tullamarine is utterly cooked.
Can confirm
My only thought is,
"Why?"
Ahem : Agency workers who donβt
This was my recent one earlier last month.
They all seem to go through the airport like the main depot is there. They never used to do that.
There's an auspost sorting facility down in Dandenong South, so I imagine it's just being sorted for distribution. Thought, anecdotally, there's been parcels getting stuck in sorting facilities for weeks. I imagine their packages fell off the conveyor lol
Edit: clarification because I had another coffee and am overthinking: it is at Dandenong to be sorted, it will then be sent to your local auspost and assigned a postie to deliver.
I'll have a chat with my aunt about it, she works for auspost. (Apparently posties/couriers can be very emotional and resistant to change lol love her stories)
