UPS: Dumb and Dumber!

I became a UPS shareholder to have standing when they mess up again. Consider the delivery of this small package:


Thursday, June 4
10:34 AM
Package arrived at a carrier facility
Parsippany, NJ US
4:41 AM
Delay in delivery due to weather or natural disaster (Good one)
Parsippany, NJ US
4:07 AM
Out for delivery
Parsippany, NJ US
2:13 AM
Package arrived at a carrier facility
Parsippany, NJ US
12:34 AM
Package has left the carrier facility
Horsham, PA US
Wednesday, June 3
7:38 PM
Package arrived at a carrier facility
Horsham, PA US
5:31 PM
Package arrived at a carrier facility
Breiningsville, PA US
Package has shipped
Breinigsville, PA US
 
I watched their little truck go by the house a half dozen times. The package is now lost but the weather has been just great and as far as I can see there has been no natural disaster. The package still floats in UPS ether.
 
It is amazing the gross incompetence of many US companies. USPS is frankly just as bad, saw two Dumb and Dumber types trying to sort the mail in front of the house. The USPS loses mails like a six year old loses teeth but no Tooth Fairy!
 
It is truly amazing that we have a crumbling infrastructure everywhere. The package is still floating about and it may get here, I do not count on it.
