the package was supposedly loaded on the truck at 3:01 am... we'll see if I ever receive the package... MP said last night that they probably broke it... which is probably likely...
Well... I know I will never use Fedex Again, despite their customer service being extremely nice.... I called and asked about the status of a pckage, and I just got irritated with the excuses so I asked to talk to the representatives' Manger... only to be put on hold for 5 minutes.... anyway, Today's excuse is supposedly "We're behind because of weather delays from the storm last week, and that with the additional packages, they are two days behind".... Additionally, the supervisor supposedly called the driver and told them that I'm waiting for my package... which makes me think that I probably won't get it today at all... Luckily the package is a christmas gift for somebody local....
MP's right, they are retards.... like I said... i'm not using them ever again.... the USPS is better, so is UPS....
I called Fedex again last night... they told me that they're not sure what the issue is with my package, but it is on another vehicle for delivery... I am supposed to get a call from a Manager of the Carol Stream Facility today... but I doubt that this will happen.... so we'll see if I get my package today... if it's not here by 4:00... I am going to call fedex and ask for the Customer Service representatives, Manager, and then Ask for That persons' Manager to see if anything can get done... because this is just ridiculous.
Well the package I'm waiting for is on a vehicle for Delivery as of 1:14 this morning... so we'll see if it comes today... if not, I'm going to ask them if there is anyway that they can deliver it to a FedexKinkos location and I can pick it up....
On a side note, my domain http://www.waynesworkshop.com now works... so it'll make it easier in case I switch services... so we'll see..
I just purchased a new domain name... http://waynesworkshop.com. It may not work for the next 24 Hours while the Domain Servers are updated... but that's ok... I bought the domain for two years so we'll see how well it works. This domain should work indefinately, but in case something happens to this domain i'll have a backup
Well... I just got done making the dough for Molasses cookies... most people don't realize how difficult it is to scoop out of a metal bowl... it tires your arm out after a while... it's quite messy making the dough... luckily we have a mixer so it makes it easier to mix then entire batter when you're adding the flower..
now tomorrow it'll be time to actually roll the dough out and bake the cookies.... more difficult work... I should post the recipe sometime
Well I called Fedex three times today... once to see if was anything more about the package that was supposed to be here yesterday... and the first time, the lady said there was no attempt to deliver it... isn't that encouraging... The second time I called was to see what time they deliver until, and that is 8:30 for residential deliveries, 5:30 for businesses. So the third time I called (after 8:30) to register a complaint and the lady said that she will make sure that the fedex facility is aware of the issue and that there should be an attempt to deliver it on Monday.... we'll see if that happens.
Well... I left work at 10:00pm after an upgrade we did that actually worked.... I had been at work since 11:00am... oh well I get paid for all of it... of course now I'm tired... but I'm off until 12/28... I have vacation time that I have to take...
On a sad note though, Actor John Spencer of West Wing died today of a Heart Attack... he was only 58.. he would have been 59 on Tuesday... I'm not sure how his character will be taken off of the show... he was a good actor, and played the role of Leo McGarry like nobody else could...
I checked on the status of my Fedex package again this morning and here's what the latest entry says:
Dec 16, 2005 1:50 AM
On FedEx vehicle for delivery
CAROL STREAM, IL
On a side note If this does not get delievered I will never use fedex again... this is completely unacceptable with no reasons as to why it was not delivered yesterday.
Just talked to MP about his book... it comes out in January... you can preorder it here from Barnes & Noble... it's Twilight of the Past: A Rift in Time.
