• fedex: when priority overnight is really 3 day


    from the fedex site on priority overnight:

    Next-business-day delivery by 10:30 a.m. to most U.S. addresses; by noon, 4:30 p.m. or 5 p.m. in remote areas; by noon or 1:30p.m. on Saturdays.

    and:

    Saturday service also available for an additional charge.

    well, my phone died this week and verizon is shipping me a new one and i opted to pay the extra $20 for priority overnight, saturday delivery.  here was the status as of 5:01 pm:

    fedex

    notice estimated deliver of 5:00pm.  yeah, it isn't here.  a call to them lets me know that it is likely still on a crate in the phoenix airport.  my options -- not much.  i'm willing to pick it up but they tell me i can't.  so basically i'm going to devconnections next week without a phone -- while i like the fact that nobody will be able to get in touch with me, generally at conferences it is vital to have a phone to communicate with your other staffes.

    argh.  well, if you are at devconnections, come to MSUnplugged (Tuesday night, 7pm) and say hello -- we'll be giving out some wicked cool stuff.
