A little venting...

What is it with waiting for a little package to arrive that needs your signature; and you go out of the house for an hour and miss FED EX?! So...what am I talking about? I ordered a new phone (nothing fancy, just a new phone); and I have been tracking it to make sure I would be home to sign for it. No kidding, not but maybe five minutes after I drove away; apparently Fed Ex saw an opportunity to deliver my package, or no wait, tease me and frustrate me is more like it. So I got the notice of "attempted delivery" and just couldn't believe it. I called up Fed Ex and asked them why they told me it would be around 4:30 today and instead they go for 10:40 am. I looked at the tracking before I left home and it still showed it was in Phoenix, about ready to be back in transit. The guy could clearly hear how annoyed I was, so he gave me attitude as well. All I asked is that they stay more current in the tracking information, because they can't expect people to just sit and wait hoping their packages arrive on time. We do have lives that include leaving the house; if that is possible.

Okay. So, I have to go pick up my package at the Fed Ex building in Flagstaff after 5:00pm today. I was just there too.

My venting is over. But I know many of you can relate to this little piece of annoying drama that won't be important tomorrow, just right now.

P.S. Jeff was right all along. When I told him I left the house, he said I was going to miss my phone delivery. I told him, oh no, it is still leaving Phoenix right now, so I should be okay. He wasn't buying it because he knew this would happen. Somebody give Jeff a trophy, because he always seems to be right with these things! ;0>
