Virtual Dispatch

Standing on a stranger’s porch is not the best time to feel conspicuous. In fact, it’s important to have a purpose when standing on a stranger’s porch. Especially considering all the cameras in use these days. The courier understands the feel of all those cameras keeping track of the strangers porch.

Furthermore, the courier is front and center when standing at the front door. Indeed many cameras are in the doorbell. Smile, they can see you leaving it at the door. Additionally, many deliveries are leave at the door deliveries. This is when the courier gets to do a little camera work too.

Basic delivery details

With this in mind, the routine repeats itself into oblivion. It’s exactly the same every time. Therefore, all the details are also the same. The problem is, if that were true, it wouldn’t feel conspicuous standing on that porch. Waiting.

Additionally, when it felt like things were moving too quickly, and a little more attention to detail was needed… that was the small voice. The one that is always right, but seldom heeded. Because it’s small. It’s also the small voice that grows in volume as a problem blooms from ignoring it.

Meanwhile back at the porch, where conspicuousness has now become suspicious, the courier is still waiting. Now it’s obvious something is off. The doorbell sounded, and the cameras are rolling film. However, still no one has made it to the door on this rare, hand it to me delivery. How odd.

They count every time

Time to check some details. Here on the porch of a stranger. If only there had been more time before this moment, at the door of a stranger, to check the details of the delivery. What if the door opens and it’s an ax wielding maniac that doesn’t like calamari?

Throw the calamari at the maniac and run. However, it would be nice to just complete the delivery, to the delivery customer.

This is ten times more likely if the courier is standing in the right spot. As it turns out here, the right spot is two doors further down. That six sure did look like an eight during that quick glance at the details earlier.

Furthermore, the rather large and gruff guy was not happy about a stranger prowling around on his porch. Additionally he helped analyze the situation with the eight and the six. Likewise the correct address was pointed out. It might be time for glasses too. And to remember basic delivery details and why they count every time. Stay safe out there.
