TheAlmightyClaw Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I am just a little mad because my package was delievered today, but I wasn't awake and no one else was home to sign for it. I called to try to pick it up, but I can't since it is a home delivery. I have to wait until tomorrow morning at some random time (most likely around 9 like today ) to sign for it. Although I had my heart set on smoking my new hookah TONIGHT. I really wish fedex would have given me at least an guess when they might have been here, so I had a chance to be awake until waiting for stupid tomorrow! Another day....

Allia22 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Be thankful it didn't get lost in the mail, that happened with a shipment of wig dye (Quistis cosplay) via USPS that's been lost since August Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porkchop Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 At least you didn't have a crystal bowl shipped to you that was broken. It was a present for my grandmother-in-law. I payed $489 for it. That was a bummer! So her birthday present was a little late, but she was understanding. More important things in life though. Just the little things that make you mad in life that you have to get over. I just think about my family and kids whenever there's anything insignificant that angers me. Anywho, hope you are awake tomorrow to get your goods! Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAlmightyClaw Posted May 25, 2007 Author Share Posted May 25, 2007 Thanks, I now there are more important things in life, but I am just dissapointed because I really wanted to use it today. That I was willing to pick it up (to make their life easier) but for some stupid reason I can't. At least I still have a hookah to use until then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insidius Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 lol I love this. Screw Fedex because you were the lazy ass that wasn't awake for the delivery. I'm kidding of course, hence the smiley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAlmightyClaw Posted May 25, 2007 Author Share Posted May 25, 2007 At least ups delievered later in the afternoon (and left its since I didn't have to sign for it).

mushrat Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 you can call the terminal and pick it up this evening when the truck returns from its rout. Bring your door tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAlmightyClaw Posted May 25, 2007 Author Share Posted May 25, 2007 I called the 1800fedex number, and they said I just have to wait until tomorrow since it is not a business drop off. It is werid because it would cause them less work, but they don't want to do it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least I still have a hookah to use until then Yea, I'm surprised that they wouldn't let you pick it up. That seems a little weird. But if you can't do it, and that's their policy, I guess you just kind of have to wait. I bet tomorrow morning is like a week away for you. You really want that hookah and you are forced to just count the minutes. Haha. Sometimes I feel like their rules are so unreasonable. Like in your case! Well good luck, buddy! Enjoy your new hookah when you get it.P.S. - They say the best things in life are worth waiting for! And the early bird gets the worm! Haha.

mushrat Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 The phone people at the internation 800 number don't know squat. Call them and tell them you need to arrange a pick up at the local terminal and would like to be connected please. They don't like to because it makes them unnecessary, but they will do it. Your local terminalpeople are probably much nicer and a whole lot more competant and helpful I'll bet you. I've had to deal with this kind of thing a few times before.

L'Oignon Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Well at least Fedex isnt buggering orders up all over the net because they did rate changes and havnt updated the calculation software yet.Dammit USPS, get your shit together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Noob Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I'll take FedEx over UPS any day of the week.Any time I order from outside of Canada, UPS hits me with these outrageous "Brokerage" fees. USPS/Canada Post are inefficient like most government corporations are. After all, why be efficient, when you don't have to be?Winner: FedEx. Through process of elimination.
