I already have the exercise bike. Problem is, the frame is bent (not sure if it's UPS' or the factory's fault). Fortunately, there's a guarantee so they'll take it back and ship me a new one, all at no expense.
However, UPS has the brilliant policy to pick up anytime between 9 am - 7 pm and refuses to notify you in advance (via phone call, etc). Even better, they only pickup/deliver on weekdays. Perfect!
I've tried leaving to work later than normal and getting home by 5 pm (one of the many phone calls I made said UPS shows up at ~5:45 pm). Still no luck, heck, there were also several no shows (at least no sticker to be found). Better yet, one of my UPS calls a few days ago said they tried to pick it up 7 times. I've only gotten 2 friggin' notices (supposedly they leave one at every attempt).
As for the "why don't I bring it to work" or "to the leasing office", yes, I've thought of both. However, I live in a 2nd floor apartment, and the boxed up exercise bike is both bulky and pretty heavy at ~150 lbs. It's not something I plan on doing.
Did I ever mention I hate UPS?

Okay, I gotta ask, how did you come up with that name? Besides ORC, I'm pretty confused right now...

It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn't take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face.

Wasted 10+ hours this week playing the "tag" game with them and I'm fed up with it.
You kicked my dog!!!
