The post office delivered my missing package

[left-of-center2012]

A couple months ago, when I was stocking up on food due to the stay at home shutdown,
I decided to buy some powder whole milk for cereal, etc (just in case). Bought a 2 pound can from Amazon (everyone else was selling nonfat; I wanted whole).

Tracking shows it was delivered June 8th, and put in a ‘parcel locker’. I got a key to the locker, but it was empty. I complained to the P.O.; I complained to Amazon. But because the P.O. tracking said it had been delivered to me, they would do nothing.

This morning there was a key in my mailbox for the parcel locker. I was puzzled as I had not ordered anything in weeks. Found a box with my name and address; took it home; opened it up and there was the powdered milk I had ordered 2 months ago. The label said it had been shipped on June 8th.

I asked the can “Where have you been?” but got no reply.

1. Similar thing happened to me some years back, only with UPS.

Couple of months later the package mysteriously showed up on my doorstep. I had to throw it out though, because it had food items and they didn't held.
How is the milk doing?

3. It's a can of powdered milk

“The USDA states that an unopened container of powdered milk can be stored anywhere from two to 10 years”

2. Wait! You asked the can? Weren't you supposed to ask Alexa? ;-)

4. Probably got lost in a Delta Air Lines cargo hold somewhere.

A lot of the USPS mail and packages fly instead of trucking it.
