29-May 2019: Mailbox Woes at the Hands of Andrew Christian

Most of you know that I have my underwear purchases sent to a "secret" PO Box of which my wife is unaware. I have the box so that she will not discover my penchant for men’s underwear. It has worked out fairly well. That is until now!

•
The trouble all began when I recently made a purchase from Andrew Christian. As is usually the case, I receive a text message when a package is delivered. When I received notification, I headed to the post office after work to pick up my goods. However, the mailbox was empty when I opened it. I rechecked my text message and clicked on the link. That’s when I read the following:

When I saw that the package was left at the front door. I panicked. I was heading home late since I had been on call for the day. I knew my family would have found the parcel in my absence.

I was sweating bullets as I pulled in the driveway. However, when I got home my family was not there. I entered the house and found the parcel on the kitchen counter. As I examined the package I saw that the PO Box was pasted over with a new shipping label for my home address. You could still see the PO Box and my name attached to it very clearly.

I began to think of what I would say if questioned by my wife about the PO Box. I thought I would say the package was delivered to me by mistake and that I would return it to the post office. Yet I was concerned that would not sound plausible.
•
When my wife and son came home minutes later, she did not say anything about the package. That is not unusual though. She doesn’t generally scrutinize parcels because we order a lot of things my mail. I knew I was in the clear! I could go put on this pink thong (one of several items I ordered).

•
What a close call! I vow never to order from Andrew Christian again. What the heck were they doing?! Ugh! Privacy is lacking on their end (that is for certain).
