Default I HATE UPS....They are horrible.



Does anyone else think the tracking on this order seems a little odd???

Even after all that it seems like it went pretty quick.

the stuff about clearing and brokerage is info only, not actual shipments so if you ignore that stuff it looks to be traveling in a straight line more or less.

I send over 70,000 packages a year with UPS and usually only have a couple problems.

They guarantee it for Thursday, and say it is still on time, but little do they know it is at least 2 days by road to get here from Lachine.

The tracking info never looks like this when I get shipments from Austin Homebrew, it just goes straight to Lachine.

I am just impatient, those are my kegs and kegerator stuff. I need that, ok so I want it really really bad.

Oh damn. I totally gasped when I looked at that closely.

...then remembered that Canada prefers to put use day/month, not month/day. >.<

/me waves from the other end of the country!
