"Where the hell were you, pa? And where's your airtag?"

"Err say what?"

"That thing I hung on your pocket, the round thingy?"

"Oh that? I thought it was Aida's earing, so I gave it to her."

"Who's Aida? Pa? Pa, who's Aida?"

"Hunhh? Ohh... Err... where am I?"

Having had UPS lose a few of my outgoing IT equipment shipments since Feb, 2022, inside their own local shipping facility in my area. (New Warehouse staff, I am told by the drivers)

I have started marking my packages:
"GSP Tracking Device Active".

Haven't lost another one since.
