I had a rear bag go from Florida to Utah by way of Hawaii. Now we just need to find all of the rest of the rifle parts going on a Hawaii vacation.

The bullshit comes from the top and trickles down to the peons.
How do you do the text email? It must be a tight camera outline to avoid "false alarms" by other drivers, etc. But I already have the cameras. I could throw a "Blink" outdoor on that and shrink down the coverage area, but we'll see.
In any market, whoever pays the most has first pick from the available workforce. From there, excellence is driven from the top down. This is why a Chic-Fil-A will have great service, sitting next to a McDonslds that is abysmal. They pay better. They train better. And, they fire those that don’t make the grade. If you’re afraid to fire b/c you need the warm body, you are failing on at least 2 fronts. Which ever service is paying their employees the most, in your area, is probably the service that sucks the least, in your area…
This is how I received match grade bullets from euro optic via UPS. They tried to blame UPS but it was clearly not packed properly and the cardboard box of bullets was simply a missile inside the box.
The outer box was in pristine condition and my driver actually added some tape because bullets were falling out.

Snagged the same box from Grafs and it was packed well enough to throw out a 3rd story window.
Euro made it right but I’m really wish these companies would pack a little better. I paid $21 to ship that little box so it is not like I didn’t pay for shipping……

I should have got one of those for my exwifes pussy, but back then my phone plan probably couldn't hande the volume of alerts.
This is the new norms since the Plandemic. Mostly due to the fact people suck and nobody wants to actually "work" and our own liberal controlled government promotes people NOT working. The most recent Federal workforce information reveals that only 6-10% actually work in person but remotely (little actual work) and still receive full pay and benefits. But also in large part due to this from the 60's!!!
This shit has to stop........
My turn.
Several years ago I sent a loan payoff check via Priority Mail from Idaho to Florida. After the usual stop in Spokane it went to a town in Minnesota, which sent it to a smaller MN town....who sent it back to the big town...who sent it back to the small town...who sent it back to the big town where it sat for eight days before being sent to Florida.
The small MN town had a similar name to the FL one but of course a different zip code.
Late payment cost me an extra $240 in interest.

Remember, the drivers for Fedex Ground are *not* Fedex employees but contractors. The truck might be branded as Fedex but, usually, you'll see the contractor's name and credentials, etc. just to the lower left of the truck's front door. You'd have to sue the contractor's LLC or whatever.
I only own wide brushes!
The second I hear someone say "that's not my job"......my wide brush comes out.
This reminds me of an episode during OIF2 in 2004/5 timeframe:
We had an OH-58D get shot up during a mission and it needed a new tailboom. Said tailboom should have gone from Texas -> Maryland -> Germany ->Iraq.
Should have.
What actually happened was Texas -> Maryland -> Haiti (sits for a month) -> Maryland -> Germany, and stops there. When we redeployed back to Germany I found the box sitting in our hangar. Wrong shape, size, and with the wrong NSN for a '58D tailboom. Open it up and there is a nice pretty AH-64 transmission.
I know where the USP"S" hires from

Be wary of Amazon and when packages are "lost" or "never delivered." Sometimes, it's a bait and switch thing.
I've had several times when Amazon offered an item at a low price and shipped it, only to have that package lost or not delivered. It used to be that they'd send you a "replacement" item. Not anymore. What they do now is refund your purchase price and let you buy the item again. Of course, by that time, the price will have risen to what they really want to charge for it. Likewise, if the price goes down while you are in this process, they will only refund the amount that represents the current price, not what you paid for it.
Caveat Emptor!
Yeah Amazon does shady crap like that. Most of my shipments take a week here in Wyoming. They are getting sued for slow deliveries suddenly I get 2 shipments in 2 days time, on a Sunday…..
That’s a cocksucker no wait a minute a that’s a surefire cockhooker but I wouldn’t have that unhirable POS anywhere near me.
Location is a factor too imho , i had really no issues with the USPS while living in NJ [trenton] ....it takes quite a lot to get used to this USPS service in panama city beach fla and their slow service .
They all suck but wrap your head around this re; USPS. I live in SW Florida, I can send a priority box to my son outside of Seattle in Everett Wa. 3 days 4 at the most. A priority box shipped to Tampa or the east coast of Fl takes 4-5 days but consistently a box goes to Wa. state in 3-4 days!!! This is just one example of the malfeasance at the USPS. And you're right sloporshe it's all location dependent.
Ridiculous but true and I have had many near disasters (losses) from each of the "big three" like some have said moving across back and forth coast to coast etc, and signature confirmations are a joke with all 3 including NFA items, HazMat items and high value insured items, if you have ever signed for anything they use that regardless of whether you actually signed.
The only true way I've found is the slow walk of USPS registered mail, now I use that for anything over $1k......

This is awesome... the tracking indicates it is in the "U.S." so I have that going for me! Seriously though, it is good to know it's in the U.S. since it is a package that was shipped from WI to MI 
Package there since Thursday. How will it arrive at my home in DE by 9:00?
Don’t get me started on the package coming from Australia. Two days to Kali, four days in customs, two weeks with USPS in LA and they have no idea where it is
