On July 1st I sent out a flat box with two autographed pieces to an auction house in Phoenix from the western suburbs of Chicago by Priority mail two day delivery.
24 days later it still showed sitting here in Oswego where I dropped it off.
When I called they claimed that Phoenix was a hotspot and Covid had them down to bare bones workers and things were really slow.
I said, that is understandable, but the package is still showing 1300+ miles from Phoenix and your "slowdown".
They said, "Covid has far reaching implications" and that I couldn't pick up the package I shipped from my one-horse town over 3 weeks earlier nor put in a claim earlier than 30 days.
Yesterday, 36 days after shipping they called and said "good news, your package is heading in the right direction, it is in Indianapolis."
I asked her is she has a US Map nearby, she assured me that she did. I asked her to put me on speaker phone and to put a finger on Oswego Illinois and one finger on Indianapolis. Then.... kindly find Phoenix Arizona and tell me how the package that they have had for 36+ days is heading in the right direction when it went 3.5 hours southeast when it should be going WEST.
I ended up with a dialtone. hahaha
