Have you called FedEx? You get an automation system. It's frustrating. The secret is to say "representative" when the computer pauses for machine breath. Oh, it's a nice simulation, all right, with little human touches, like, "I didn't quite catch what you said, tell me again." "I SAID REP-RE- SENT- TA - TIVE!!!!" "I'm sorry, did you say "rates?" "NOOOO! REPRESENTATIVE." "I'm sorry, I didn't understand. Let's try again." But okay, I am used to that. It's okay to exercise your neck vein-buldge muscle. Really.
I sent a box to California.
Checked on it's progress with my tracking number. FedEx is scan happy. I like that.
Somehow - and this might be a HUGE breakthrough for the World As We Know It (and I have it in writing so it must be true) - the package arrived in Oakland, California, 4 and 1/2 hours BEFORE it left San Antonio, Texas.
