So, UPS is trash. I have a few things that i bought from amazon, and 98% of the time the seller ships it through USPS, and it arrives at a fairly reasonable time every time. I got like four things coming in the mail, three of which are shipped with UPS. two of them have been sitting at the office like 20 miles away for two days already, and it's estimating both might not arrive for another five days... ?????

Great scott. Just gimme my stuuuufff!!!! :p

There is something off about the mail here recently. I ordered something off of ebay from Virginia. Normally it would take a couple days, it ended up taking about two weeks. It shipped from Virginia, to North Carolina all the way to New Mexico and back to West Virginia before arriving here. I don't know if they are changing routes or shipping facilities, but it's been hard keeping track of everything since they don't leave updates with the tracking number anymore.

New Mexico?

I know, right? That caught me off guard when I checked the status that day. I was thinking okay, North Carolina, it'll ship to the Ohio facility and I should get it in two days. Then New Mexico happened and everything arrived the following week.

Either terrible routing or the conspiracy theory in me saying an attempt to encourage more expensive shipping

I placed the order on February 11th, it shipped from Texas on the 12th and left the facility, got here in a little over a day or two. Been sitting 20 miles away from me for two days. And counting. Says the estimated arrival will be in five more days.

I could walk to the facility and back by the end of the day and pick it up myself... Five days? Really?

Also I will say from being old the quality of most things is degrading from a shitty work force

They got lots of stops along the way, dingus!

They should get fucking moving then, as they have been parked for two god damn days.

Definitely the conspiracy theory, because they give a window of arrival time, and they ALWAYS wait till the last day of arrival time. I've watched the tracking sit in one spot for days for no other reason than "we don't have to delivery it till ____". It's always UPS that does it too.

I'll always be amazed that you have to work 15 years for this fucking company before you can get Saturdays off. Ridiculous.

I wanna take a trip up to Big Bear while there's still snow on the ground. Currently snowing over there right now and supposed to snow a couple more times this week.

Yep, experienced that with UPS often, and bitched about it.

#1 bullshit. I've been so ready to hang up that Clint Eastwood poster I showed everybody in the chat the other day.

Says it arrived at a carrier facility in my town. Should get here tomorrow (knock on wood, fingers crossed). All that bitching and now I look like an ass. :mrgreen: :geek:
