Walterjn You feeling any better about life in general??

No. The problems are still there and growing, I just now know that I'm helpless to do anything except wait for the kaboom. No sense keeping up with things that I have absolutely no influence over.

      No sense in stressing over it either. Let it go, Johnny! 😉

          Just shipped a driver to Cali. FedEx wanted $55 and no guarantee of delivery. USPS was $18 for Priority. Still no guarantee in this day and age, but quite a bit of savings.

            They keep showing up for me. Three more packages moving along nicely, as they should.😉

            Well.......they're at it again. Not far away, but may as well be.

            In Transit, Arriving Late
            Your package will arrive later than expected, but is still on its way. It is currently in transit to the next facility.

            Yeah, I'm on UPS watch today. A new Sub70 putter that was originally due Thursday. I am playing tomorrow. Plenty of cushion.

            And then on Thursday, it went to NeverNever Land with only a "check back tomorrow" on the website. Stayed that way all weekend. Then about 10am today, it changed to "on truck for delivery today from 1-5 pm". We'll see about that.

            That reminds me...wasn't there something on the UPS site a year or so ago where you could actually follow the truck that your package was on as it travelled around the map? I thought that was handy in keeping too many packages from being observed by my wife. 🙂 I haven't seen that feature in a while though.

              Sparky That reminds me...wasn't there something on the UPS site a year or so ago where you could actually follow the truck that your package was on as it travelled around the map?

              You might need to have an account and login to see that and click on "follow my package." But I have used that recently and watch the truck get to within a few streets from me then they dash off to locations far away and my package gets here much later than expected.

                  Shipped boxes Sat. to FL. Delivered today.

                  Yesterday, Sunday, around 7 p.m., the P.O. made a delivery across the street!

                  I've had boxes delivered everywhere last week in just 2 days. I did make about 8 complaints through their website prior, so maybe there's something to being a lil bitch.

                  Rickochet shit, maybe usps needs to something similar... Providing that they don't lose the damn thing beforehand..

                    Yes there is. You have to set up an account. I did it several years ago and used it last week for a package delivered from California.

                        Par4QC I still buy stamps. pay bills through the mail etc. Fed Ex has sucked on my last 3 deliveries, one taking 13 days, one continued to send me updates 10 days after I had received my package. Never had any trouble with USPS, maybe because I have a Post Office box. Who knows!!!

                          I sent out 13 boxes today, USPS, from WA to LA to NY to CA. All are showing a Thursday(expected) delivery date. Except for 1 that is only going to TN, it's Friday.

                          I'll follow up on Thursday, as to how it all goes down.
