After putting a vacation hold on the paper starting 10-7-2013 to 10-15-2013, I returned home on wed 10-09-2013 to find papers from10-07. 10-08, & 10-09 on my porch. Since then the papers have not been delivered. Upon making a call to the circulation dept, I find out that my papers will not be resumed until tue 15 oct. even though I am at home now. It seems that someone is very lax in the job, either the carrier or the circulation dept.
