Delivery Time Slots

So I should start by saying that I am very literal when it comes to punctuality... if someone gives me a time I take it literally. Last week Morrison’s were 15 minutes late with a home delivery, yesterday Sainsbury's were 75 minutes early and today DHL are supposed to deliver a parcel between 12:20 and 16:20 - its 16:14 and I am already getting crazily worked up because they only text the time slots in the morning so all my plans got changed last minute, leaving me on edge all day, now it looks like they will be late if indeed they deliver at all. Why invent time slots if nobody keeps to them?!?!?!

I don’t think I’m asking anything as the question above I’d rhetorical. I just needed to air this though people are welcome to discuss.  It’s now 16:17 - 3 minutes to go - this isn’t looking good.

  • Some deliver quite far my Sainsburys delivery yesterday came from Hedge End which is 33 miles away! We have closer Sainsbury’s but we are in a flexible post code area so when the one that usually delivers (which is 9/10 miles away) get overloaded - other stores step in. In fact I’ve had 3 Sainsbury’s deliveries to date since living here and they’ve come from 3 separate stores. Our nearest Morrison’s is 10 miles away or more and they deliver, though their availability has been poor.
