I’m a small business owner, and this situation has been extremely frustrating. A customer who lives right here in Opa-Locka — not even 20 minutes away — experienced a major shipping delay that was completely out of our control. The package was originally supposed to arrive within 2–3 days, but instead, USPS mistakenly sent it all the way to Illinois before bringing it back to Miami and Opa-Locka.
This is the first time something like this has ever happened with one of our orders, and it just so happened to be the closest order we’ve ever shipped. I take pride in making sure every customer receives their order quickly and in perfect condition. Now I gotta do all this so my customer gets there package and so I don’t get a bad review I can potentially lose a customer thanks a lot.
