I receive very few packages by Fed Ex, mostly UPS and USPS, oh, and Amazon.
I ordered an item from California that weighs 75lbs. A day or two before it shipped I contacted the vendor and requested to cancel the order IF it had not already shipped. They canceled, credited my card, and turns out they shipped the order anyway two days later.
Fortunately someone was at home and refused the shipment with detailed explanation, (as the vendor had suggested, which I never really understood why they said to refuse since the tracking still said it hadn’t shipped two days after canceling the order).
So the next day, Fed Ex delivers it again, and I’m home and explain why we are refusing it, again, and he dutifully inputs the info into his tricorder (acting like he genuinely knew what he was doing) and puts the 75lb package back on the truck.
So today, what do I find back on my porch? 75lb parcel that is the worst for wear.
I called FedEx and their call center sounds like they are working from home in Bangladesh.
Scheduled them to pick it up after way too long on the phone.
Oy Veh.
