Going Postal

I posted a parcel to the Swiss Daughter on January 30th.


It came home today.


There is a little sticker affixed to the top of the box indicating that the wrong shipping label was used.


$45 for a round trip to... I'm not even sure where.


The Postman was most apologetic.


And a little surprised that I had mailed it from an official Postal Outlet.


He suggested I should take the receipt and the parcel and go back to where I had posted it from in the first place, and either get my money back or have them fix the problem and resend it.


So.


I'm a little ticked off at the Canada Post employee who didn't know what she was doing.


And a little frustrated that the parcel that was sent  two and a half weeks ago is back to where it started from.


It's a good thing she's there until the end of August.


It may take that long to get there, at this rate.
