Today, it was my big sister's birthday, and I was told the iPod I ordered her online was not coming due to a mix up. I drove to three different electronic stores before I found the one she wanted. After spending forever in traffic, I came home to find a package on my doorstep. It was her iPod. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the package I've waited for months for finally arrived. It turned out it wasn't for me, but for my sister, who bought the same thing only 2 weeks ago. When I called, the company told me they received my payment, but that there were no more of the item in stock. FML
Today, it's my birthday. I asked everyone for iTunes money, pleased to finally be able to buy some new songs for my iPod. After receiving several gift cards, I discovered that my iPod had been stolen. FML
Today, my sister was meant to come over for lunch for my birthday. Turns out, she forgot about it. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My best friend decided to have a birthday party for me at this new bar. She texted the wrong address to all of my friends. They showed up at a computer store. FML
Today, my mom and I went to Best Buy for some Christmas shopping. She picked up some presents for me and told me not to look at what she was buying. When we got to the register, she didn't have enough money, and I ended up having to buy my own presents. FML
Today, I took my iPod to Walmart to replace the battery. They tell me to call Apple. I go home again and call Apple. They tell me to call Walmart. I call Walmart. They tell me to bring it in. FML
Today, my sisters and I were throwing my mom a birthday party. Since I'm not good at baking, I ordered her a really nice and expensive cake. As my daughter and I were headed out the door, she told me she had added some sprinkles to make it pretty. It was the silica beads from a package. FML
Today, I found my daughter's brand new ipod touch. At the bottom of the washing machine. FML
Today, I went to visit some family out of state for my niece's birthday. I couldn't think of what to get an 8-year-old so I got her a Barbie doll. Everyone else got her money, iPods, game consoles, etc. When she got to mine she asked "how do I turn it on?" Then threw it away when she couldn't. FML
Today, I received an email from a shipping company telling me they had dropped off a package of expensive electronics at the front door. Too bad someone stole it before I made it to the door. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

So the company that delivered the iPod just left it on your door step for anyone to see and take? I don't believe that. If you're not home you have to pick it up.

Not true. The purchaser must indicate that someone needs to sign for it when they deliver it, otherwise, it'll be left in a safe/consealed place on the porch/doorstep.

UPS and FedEx do this all the time. I routinely come home to packages left on my doorstep. I guess that's what the package insurance is for.

I once had my passport delivered by FedEx left at my doorstep. I hadn't realised till then that passports would be delieverd without signature, otherwise, I'd have sent a self-addressed certified post envelope while applying for the visa (there was no option for signature on delivery if we chose their delivery method). So, yes - some posts are delivered at the doorstep.
