In additional preparation for a vacation, I called the local newspaper office to place service on hold. I gave my phone number, and the request was processed. "Do you want to donate the undelivered papers to a local school?" I replied to extend my subscription period. I returned from vacation to find a water-infiltrated rotting pile of delivered papers by the front door. I called to register a complaint, and received an apology. The next day I did not receive a paper. I called back to say that the papers were delivered while away, and not after I returned home, to which the embarrassed agent apologized, and did not know how that could happen! He said that a copy would be sent out. I returned home to find a copy of the previous day's paper in lieu of the present day! The following day, the paper was not delivered again! When I called to say that the day before, I received a paper from the day before that, another agent apologized again, and sent out two copies of the wrong days' papers! On the third day, normal delivery resumed!
