Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #auspost, aggregated by home.social.

  1. #AusPost spent $11.5m on automated sorting facilities in its Bayswater (Vic) hub and it still can’t distinguish between Australia’s two biggest states on either side of the continent. Amazing #RoI #auspol #logistics

  2. I just spent about an hour writing up detailed feedback comments for an #AusPost parcel delivery survey after (yet another) pretty terrible delivery “experience”, how’s your day going? 😤 😮‍💨

    #pakidge? ⁉️📦⁉️ ¯_(ツ)_/¯ :pakidge:
    #SNAFU 🤪
    #JustAussieThings 💁‍♀️

  3. Happy to share a good #ecommerce story, proving it can still be a pleasant experience. Well done Australian #electronics store #Altronics

    1 You can buy online without setting up an account and password. Just like walking into a shop 👏

    2 In partnership with their courier (I think it was #Startrack via #Auspost ) they delivered a small consignment to me IN 24 HOURS as a normal shipping service 👏 👏

  4. I often #complain the #delays & weird routes #AusPost use on my #deliveries, causing items I’m waiting on to be up to several weeks late.

    Therefore, I must acknowledge that AusPost seem to have stepped up their service several notches this #Christmas period!

    I am getting VERY fast delivery on my mail this month.

    Now, if they could do this year round, I’d be very satisfied.

  5. In case you’re wondering, I’m not expecting any females in the mail.

    Years in the transport industry taught me never to give actual parcel contents on shipments I sent.

    eg: #QRX in #Qld in the ‘70s was like sending parcels via pirate at the time. Valuables just vanished in their care.

    Nothing valuable in the mail, but I continue to obscure what items are coming via #AusPost #auspol

    #Peggy is decent tent pegs

    #Cher is some #Cherokee #TomatoSeeds

    #Anna is Anagraine meds for my migraines

  6. #Asthma today.

    I’m alone this weekend, the better half left yesterday morning to look after family again.

    The #alpacas & #lambs rushed the lucerne this morning - looks like more rain is coming. Are they preparing?

    Wearing an “new old stock’ #Seiko #kinetic #watch today. It’s the watch you never really hear about - it’s like a quartz watch & an automatic had a baby.

    It arrived from #Penguin in #Tasmania yesterday. The trip took 10 days after being received by #AusPost.

    Is Penguin remote?

  7. #AusPost seem to have fallen over re: #deliveries to my neck of the woods since last week.

    Items that were en route to my local #PostOffice for delivery last Thursday & Friday have vanished in #tracking.

    An enquiry as to their whereabouts has updated tracking to “delayed” & an update to delivery of 2 weeks on their due date since I asked where they are!

    #WTF!?

  8. #AusPost now have my #growbags & #shadecloth showing as coming tomorrow.

    More time for me to get on my feet I guess, but still, I was hoping they’d be here today.

    Today the plan was for me to go postal on the thistle out back. My knee might let me.

    With the #alpacas & #sheep I don’t ever want to use #poisons on weeds - that’s where my Nata comes in. #gardening

    An observation - the local #bees love the thistle. They are all over it. Thistle #honey is supposed to be very special.

    The use of the word "#scam" is appropriate.

    What if we told you the scam gets #inception-level deep. As in, while you use #AusPost your packets are decrypted by Amazo- (snip) we mean, #scamazon.

    We should also point out the #Medibank was scam'azon, also. A point conveniently omitted from all #legacyMedia coverage that happened to find us.

    Speculation follows:
    Australia Post may be using contractors, who use sub-contractors who may use subcontractors who get paid, not for their time, but per delivery. Or per load.
    Which would bias heavily towards the trashy kind of service that you describe.

    Anyone from #AusPost, or with knowledge of how #AustraliaPost manages #ParcelDelivery, in the house?

  11. A shoutout to all the delivery people working their arses off with a smile this week etc. - greatly appreciated!

  12. Marty Brazell’s #AustraliaPost Parcel Locker in Albert Street #Brunswick #Australia is impressive.

    He’s painted a few, which I intend to share throughout the fortnight.

    I’m taken with the simple and yet powerful theme here… which is LOVE!

    Such a fundamental human emotion which can inspire anyone to express goodness and virtue, love another… and / or themselves.

    Just beautiful Marty! ♥️
