Aramex are such garbage, ordered something online and they use Aramex to deliver, well after it was picked up, there has been no further updates and despite a delivery date of yesterday, it’s now listed as delayed, but still zero tracking updates since it was picked up…

Their website says see our status page for delays and yet there are none in Melbourne…

It is comical how many things here can kill you.

Sharks, crocs, jellyfish, stingrays, octopi, snakes, spiders... it's almost a pleasant surprise that we don't have any apex predator mammals.

It's also one of the few things left that is still allowed to be Australian without someone getting offended. Not much colonialism in saying 'Oh yeah mate it's just a bloody brown snake mate he's more scared of you than you are of him mate'.

Anything that's not Australia Post I immediately think "****, if I'm not home where the hell is this thing going to end up?".

One of them sent me to a depot the other side of the airport that is only open business hours. Not helpful.

I have been getting some beers delivered by CouriersPlease. They deliver like it's elf on a shelf. One day it's next to the mail box, next it's in the middle of the drive. Always a mystery they are going to place the box.

Here should be incredibly fertile soil for horror movies just for the fatal fauna alone.

I ordered some items on line and I just paid and put my address in and it rocked up.
No setting up a user name of anything.

I later set up an account.

Aramex is one of that companies where it seems things go totally smoothly or you have NFI what's happening

A couple of months back I ordered a few items off Amazon including a 100m role of weed matting - that was going to take a week to come and I was ok with that. I ordered the Sunday night, got notification on the Monday it had been shipped and it noted Aramex as the courier company and I was like ... Delivery date still a week later

I got up Tuesday morning (day after dispatch) and beside the front door was my delivery - dropped off before 8am or something crazy

-/

Nearly 2 weeks ago I ordered a couple of phone cases from eBay, they were shipped the next day (1 Dec) and included tracking for Aramex, back to the type thing

The updates on Aramex end were slow, the seller contacted me on Wednesday to check if I had received my items and they were finally delivered yesterday which was the end of the delivery range period, having only needed to come from Melbourne to Geelong

I do around 600km most weeks, don't really see many Volvos or Range Rovers. Or if I do, they don't stand out.

Match day experience shits me, I'm happy just going to the cricket or the footy.

I liked it when you used to get to watch Simmo and Errol Allcott run training, and AB would tell you to f*** off when you asked for his autograph.

I just bought a Ute after 25 years of driving little ladies cars.

I love it but damn I am nothing like these idiots.

Lots of those vids were oldies but goodies. The one where the POS old man and kid come out and attack the driver is awesome. I think the prick got done for that one
