Do you guys get the email every morning from USPS telling what arriving that day, and what is inbound over the next couple days? They don't include junk mail, maybe second class deliveries? Kinda cool feature.

In my 6+ years up here I have had the same drivers from all 3 mainstay shippers which is unique up here in the mountains. I've got Mellisa in the FedEx truck, Franz in the brown truck and my neighbor who is also my USPS mail guy Kevin.... On a 1st name basis with each, have each of their personal cell phone numbers and on a honk and wave basis when passing on the roads here. Gotta know your people....


Kevin has built an XJ Jepp for off roading and has joined my local club, Franz calls my dog into the truck for snacks when he pulls up, and I once drove up the hill about 10 miles to pull Mellisa's stuck truck out of the snow. She calls me 1st so I got her unstuck w/o calling the hub.

Know your people, and don't expect goods to be delivered on time from today, Black Friday until like mid January....
