Your personal experiences with one division are no guarantee when you are sending something other than that specific region.<br /> <br />There have been tests done over the years by various organizations, effectively causing carriers to run races with eachother without the carrier's knowledge. The results are both amusing and in some cases alarming.Bergmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15655639287511708314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22957834.post-8073360435323534722015-05-11T10:59:01.994-05:002015-05-11T10:59:01.994-05:00When it absolutely positively has to arrive, send ...When it absolutely positively has to arrive, send it UPS.<br />Geoff<br />Who is a professional paranoid.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22957834.post-6260905297559856492015-04-14T22:47:32.121-05:002015-04-14T22:47:32.121-05:00Charter posted to their Facebook timeline earlier ...Charter posted to their Facebook timeline earlier today that "the crate has been located."Dranghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08082177597135236652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22957834.post-35723617414622790902015-04-13T21:05:56.961-05:002015-04-13T21:05:56.961-05:00"I'm pretty much a fan of 'Never attr..."<i>I'm pretty much a fan of 'Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity', until it comes to firearms.

Huge shipping crate, impossible to misplace it, right? Well, instead, the shipping company misplaced the entire cargo trailer it was in! Luckily, they found it after 2-3 days, sitting at the local hub. It had gotten marked as 'empty' in their database when it was not empty.Monkeywranglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06732066232389894763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22957834.post-46480285968311763782015-04-12T22:07:44.981-05:002015-04-12T22:07:44.981-05:00This is what happens with union labor...(pardon, &...This is what happens with union labor...(pardon, 'labour').
