Several weeks ago Canada Post was on strike. After being on strike for several days the Canadian Government issued into law back to work legislation for Canada Post. At the time this was all happening I was a little upset that the Government just told them to get back to work without hearing or helping their cause.
However I have since change my mind, and here is why...
I ordered something on Monday July 4th to be believed to me. I received an e mail confirmation from both the company and Canada Post saying the package with mail. The Canada Post e mail quoted that I would have the package by Friday July 8th. On Wednesday i did a trace to see where my package was and according to Canada Post it has still not left the sorting office. A few minutes later I received an updated e mail from the Post office saying I would get my package on Monday July 11th.
OK I gave benefit of doubt to Canada Post because they had a lot of mail to get through from their strike.
Monday came....and went....AND NOTHING!
Tuesday July 12th, left my home for work at about 9:00 am. Still no package. Did another trace online and it had just update that the package was in town. Got home around 5:10 pm that night and the package pick up slip was on my door. It said that a postal delver person was at my home at 8:18 am. Well that is strange because I was at home and i heard NOTHING. When i walked out the door at 9 am i did a check to be sure that no one was there. (so either they cannot tell time or are telling stories).
It was here great so i took the slip and it said that the package would be that the quoted office at 17:00h. By the time i arrived at the postal outlet it was about 17:25h.
I presented the slip and then was informed that the package was not yet there. WHAT?!? I asked what the page said or if I read it incorrectly, as it turned out (as it always does) I was correct and it was not at the outlet like the slip said it would be. I ended up going back at 19:45 h and the package had arrived...FINALLY.
It does make it hard for me to continue to feel bad and support Canada Post cause for a strike. Since they have been back to work they have not performed their job that would make me think that they should receive better compensation.
