They pushed it northwest so the shipment could pick up speed as it travels south-eastward toward the equator. [grab]
FedEx has a small package for me. It's from Virginia and was originally scheduled for delivery on the 15th (Wed/tomorrow).
Yesterday morning the tracking showed it ahead of schedule and on the FedEx vehicle for delivery. At about 8:30 it showed the package back at the terminal because it's "not due for delivery". It's still just sitting at the terminal. Meanwhile, I'll watch the FedEx driver go right by my house later this morning just like I did yesterday.
This is why I despise FedEx. They have an opportunity to do something positive and build some good will and good customer relations and they don't do it. I could see holding it if, for example, they only came to my town two or three days a week. But they come here every day. So instead of delivering the item early they're just gonna sit on it because it's not due for another day. Fuckers.
Yeah...I hate FedEx.
I have a similar relationship with UPS. On the day of expected delivery, I'll track the vehicle the package is on and watch it driving through my neighborhood for an hour or more - even looking out my window and seeing the truck drive by my home twice, only to (A) have the driver finally show a couple of hours later, or (B) not have my package delivered that day and seeing the truck is back at it's facility come evening.
I think UPS offers the tracking tool where you can track the trucks location simply to cause great frustration to the recipient, nothing more. "So, your package is close. Aaaaannd, psyche!"
Had UPS take an ammo order back in January from MS to KY, then to UT, back to KY and MS saying that I had refused to sign for it. Fortunately, the company filed something with them showing their own tracking showed it never even got to this state and it was reshipped free and I got it two days later.
Amazon delivery by the Post Office yesterday. Notification says delivered and in mailbox at 7:50 pm. NOPE !!!
That seems to happen often out here. If the driver is behind in their day, the head honcho at the local office tells them to pull over and scan all packages as delivered by 8pm. Then the stuff shows up the next day.Quote:

I guess it's Christmas and all, but come on! Building a left handed upper for my brother (I know, I know), and I'm just waiting on the receiver itself. Everything else is sitting here in a box on my desk. Plus, I need to get it in the mail to HIM, which means at this point, it's not going to get there in time.

I just had to bitch to someone.
Shipping, ALL methods, is the worst I have ever seen. I deal with freight, all sizes, coming from all over the world, with all carriers, all day and I have never been more frustrated.
A couple weeks ago I had 5 packages ship via UPS 2-Day Air, all from the same place in NV loaded on the same truck at pickup, all with the same ship-to address. All tracking numbers are linked as a 5 piece shipment.
1 package arrived on time.
4 got "delayed".
3 eventually showed up today.
1 got returned to sender because UPS says the address is no good. (But somehow delivered 4 other pieces to the no-good address).
UPS won't refund the 2-day charges. They say they don't guarantee even premium services right now, cause Covid and holidays blah blah blah.
I have had multiple, 600lb, $8,000 pieces of equipment simply disappear over the last couple months too. XPO/Conway and others lost them. Vanished. Even after making it all the way to the Henderson distribution center from SC. Freight docks are like the bermuda triangle apparently. And freight claims rarely get paid even when they admit to losing stuff.
It's going to give me a stroke.
