The verbiage on the USPS tracking site is broken. In my opinion at least. After having the USPS lose a package of mine last month, I was enraged to think that they had done it again after seeing this tracking report, and no package in my mailbox area.
Arrival at Unit, May 08, 2007, 8:52 am, BRIGHTON, MA 02135
As I read this, the tracking indicated that the item was delivered to the “unit”, which I believed to be my apartment unit, at 8:52 AM this morning. I was confused, since I was AT my “unit” at 8:52 this morning, and no package was delivered. I was mad.
As it turns out, “unit” in this case means local post office, not “unit” as in apartment “unit”. Probably could use a better bit of wording here to avoid confusion…like say
Arrival at LOCAL POSTAL BRANCH, May 08, 2007, 8:52 am, BRIGHTON, MA 02135
I don’t know…just a thought.
