Express Pain In The Arse

Well, we got our express shipment. They loaded two trolleys, parked them outside the condo and carried each box in and stacked them . . . I was distracted by holding open the door and my husband was distracted by the third gentleman with paperwork. Chief signed off on the delivery "no complaints" . . . until they all filed out, the door shut, and . . . there are mysterious black spots all over the carpet where they walked.

A guy just left after coming to see the spots. He was like, "How could you not see those spots when they are moving the stuff in? It's pretty obvious." Well, not when you aren't watching the carpet! Anyway, it is a distinct pattern where they walked and the boxes were stacked and I didn't see anything amiss until I actually looked down at the boxes.

So, yeah, I'm waiting for him to check in with the guys (on another job), but I expect that they'll say it's our problem since Chief signed off.

I'm so pissed I could scream! I told him I knew he would try to use the signature to get out of cleaning our carpet. when he brought that up. I'm not normally aggressive but I get pissed off at the injustice done to me. I am not lying and I hate being accused of doing something and wanting someone else to pay for it. And, I know how it must look to them as well, which pisses me off even more.

Chief went down to catch them as soon as we noticed and we noticed as soon as we turned around to open boxes. He was not able to catch up with them and he called them right away.

Of course, they'll probably tell us it's our fault for not writing it in and then signing about the damage.
