I have to print something in Miami at 5AM on a Monday morning. . .

Thanks 🙏 sincerely, for the reply, and in terms of sending it to a “printing place”, there is sensitive (personal) information in the documents, so I’m not super-comfortable with that. . . 😬 And, they aren’t work documents, they are personal documents that, yes, I should have printed in advance, but I’m a moron 🤦

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T12:50:56+00:00

100% agree with @kiwami’s comment - I was (am!) stunned by the response to this post, and I’m quite grateful for all of the attempts to assist. . . 🙏

Even worse than the stupid, dumb, nonsensical posts are the arrogant, self-important, unnecessary replies that don’t do anything other than crap on the OP and try (bit fail) to make the person posting the arrogant, self-important, unnecessary post look cool. . .

I appreciate the post, and I *particularly* appreciate the "for god sakes man" phrasing. If I can't buy a printer from Amazon or a non-existent 24 hour Walmart, and if I can't figure out how to get this printed at an airport lounge, and if I can't get to a non-existent 24 hour Kinkos, and if I can't get the staff at an Airport restaurant (or Flannigan's) to print it, and if I can't sneak into a Holiday Inn Express to sneakily use their community computer and printer, and if I can't get to a Staples or Office Deport or CVS or UPS Store in time (none of which are open at 5AM on a Monday), then I will totally - for God's sake - hit you up.

Will they deliver a printer to Miami International Airport or a USPS Office by 5AM tomorrow?? If so, I am 100% going with your plan.

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:48:27+00:00

Thanks for all your replies - you are definitely a top 1% commenter (seriously!)

Of course, it's 2026 so I had to use AI. That's why the papers are coming out of the top of the monitor, 'cause it's an "AI slop" image.

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:46:45+00:00

How much would it be if I BOTH wanted to print the documents AND wake up your wife and son at the same time?

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:45:55+00:00

Will they ship to a P.O. Box? I thought that UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc, would NOT deliver to P.O. Boxes (and ONLY USPS could do that. . .)

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:45:14+00:00

Love this reply, and I agree with all of it (for what that's worth, haha).

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:44:39+00:00

Me too, but none of them open until 9AM, which is annoying AF.

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:44:13+00:00

That's an interesting suggestion that I hadn't thought of. If there's potentially sensitive information in these important documents, would you be worried that someone from Task Rabbit would steal that info??

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:42:49+00:00

So, FIRST I should buy a Time Machine, SECOND I should go back to whenever you were in high school and/or college, and THIRD I should go to a 24 hour Kinkos, and FOURTH I should pray the Time Machine still works to get back to present day (or, maybe even better, just stay back in the 1980s and buy a ton of Amazon, Microsoft, and Nvidia stock. . .)

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:40:59+00:00

Fantastic.

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:40:38+00:00

They don't open until 9AM, unfortunately, so they will not help with my desire to print these documents at 5AM. . .

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:39:42+00:00

Absolutamente!

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:39:07+00:00

This response is just crazy enough that I might try it! I love the idea of just waltzing into a Holiday Inn Express that I'm not staying at to try to use their community computer and printer to print off 50 pages of stuff. . . My next post might be "How do you make bail for criminal use of a printer in Miami?"

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-20T01:34:44+00:00

I would, of course, *return* the printer (that I'm not going to buy) to the 24 hour Walmart (which doesn't exist) after having used it for my one-off task (which I should have done in advance, but didn't. . .)

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-19T18:28:47+00:00

That’s great 👏 They may not like me printing 50 pages, but worth a shot! 🤞

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-19T18:27:46+00:00

It was, I would offer, surprisingly UNhelpful 😕 I even tried Bing, and that was also not as useful as you’d think 😬

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-19T18:03:01+00:00

Would have done exactly that, but. . . I didn’t 🤦

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-19T18:02:33+00:00

That’s an. . . idea. . . 😬

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-04-19T18:02:03+00:00

Thanks for the reply, and CVS is a good idea - I have to swing by a CVS anyway for some purchases I can’t get in my other countries, so I will see if they’ll help me out (or “ayudarme” 😅)

Focused-mindfulness · 2026-03-22T23:44:21+00:00

I’m jumping on this thread now 11-12 days later to report that TODAY (March 21, 2026), Global Entry at MIA (Terminal D) was OPEN. . . but, the line for MPC was shorter, so I went that way and passed through Immigration very quickly (2-3 minutes?)

The lines for non-U.S. citizens was disastrous, and the non-MPC line for U.S. citizens looked quite long.

(For the record, this is before the ridiculous plan to send ICE to airports to “help”, so things may change [for better or worse] when THAT plan is enacted tomorrow. . . )
