Little bit of bad service
I pay for seven day service for newspaper delivery, so on Thanksgiving morning when I didn't receive the biggest paper of the season, I called the newspaper company. I was told they would send one out to me. For whatever reason the carrier skipped me yet again.
I guess I'm supposed to feel grateful that they brought me one (although I pay for it). However, when it was thrown in my driveway, on a very windy morning, I had to chase half of the fliers through the yard. So whoever dropped it off, Thanks, but if you want to take the fact that you had to bring it out on someone, how about the person who was supposed to bring it in the first place.
The Newspaper Company is a little bit like Comcast, there's only one provider so you have to take whatever they dish out.

When we first began subscribing to the YDR, our carrier missed us most of the time. We finally started getting mostly regular deliveries, but we're still missed way too often. And, when it's windy, our paper blows away - a loose rubberband just doesn't work. And, when it rains, our paper is wet. The cheap bag either isn't fastened or tears from hitting the pavement. I have lived in many other states, and the delivery service here is the worst I've ever had. My spouse says that I should tip the carrier - yeah, right.
You have CABLE? I get
three channels with NO
"service" at all! Waste of
money. Now you know why
we don't subscribe to our
local papers.
