My favourite stupid delivery story is when I ordered something for my flat at the time from B&Q, and one day I was informed that my package was on its way to number 44 thousand and something on my street. Which was a bit weird considering it only had about 20 blocks of flats on it. What I figured out must have happened was someone had taken the flat number (written with a slash, e.g. 10/3) and for some reason put it into its own column in Excel, which had promptly formatted it as a date in the current year. Dates in Excel being ultimately stored in terms of days since 1 January 1900, of which there had been around 44 thousand. They did not manage to deliver it that day.

Incels and Excel both notorious for incorrectly assuming something is a date.

How do you even hire Hermes or Yodel or whatever to deliver a ton of soil? I had some soil delivered recently and the uhhh, soil shop(?!?) hired a local guy with a dump truck to come and deliver it.

a ton of soil starts becoming less obvious once you start getting into medium sized install jobs. a contractor working a bigger residential redesign might not miss that much until towards the end of the work if they built in enough of a fudge factor, especially if they think the client might not notice if things are a bit off plan

90% of interesting long form articles now seem like a sales pitch for the author's new book, so I guess it's pitches all the way down.

I once lost a delivery because they left it inside the recycling bin that got collected before I found out. I trist whoever found it at the recycling centre enjoyed the shirts it contained.

Aphex- posted:Well this loving sucks: Ugh, what a disappointment. Why are we constantly going backwards? I love Dartmoor, have spent many a night wild camping there. I will still go, cos you can't enforce something like that in the middle of the remote moors, but for fucks sake. Maybe in the more popular outskirt areas you could, but you can disappear nicely when you go further in. So many people will be put off from trying out wild camping by this though. loving rich people ruin everything

Does wild camping mean just not using a camp site? One isn't allowed to camp on the island in Windermere, but the majority of my camping has been done exactly there. I'm a badboy.

Sir Sidney Poitier posted:Does wild camping mean just not using a camp site? Yeah pretty much. It's not going to deter many wild campers because we don't give a poo poo, and it's never been an issue before. It's just another thing that's being taken away by the rich for no good reason.
