arranged for shipping of something last week, from Denver, for delivery Saturday the 8th to the Salt Lake city area.
Fedex moved it around the Denver area (movement/scanning everyday) for 4 days, and even claimed a weather delay (as far as I've seen, the weather as been nice in the Denver area for over a week). It arrived in the Salt Lake area Wednesday morning (really Tuesday night, coalville is about an hour east of SLC). It's been moving around SLC for 2 full days now!!
I finally got a hold of someone, actually a few local people. They've told me "staffing shortages", I said no dice, staffing shortages doesn't result in a package being moved from scanner to scanner or bldg to bldg (if so, I think you are doing it wrong). I was then transferred.
Next person told me "weather". When I said I'm not buying bad weather in Denver or I70 during this period, as well as 2 days in SLC with no real progress, he responded saying "Well, bad weather in other states has an effect on everything". I asked him to explain to me how bad weather in an other state could cause my package to bounce around SLC for 2 full working days. No answer.
One person told me it'll be going to Logan next, which is about 2 hours north of SLC, and about an hour back down to my house. The second person told me the package is actuall south of SLC (west haven) and might make it onto a truck for delivery by EOD tomorrow. MIGHT!!
Now I've just seen this update:
I'm almost at a loss for words here....
