    This is why I never trust the accuracy of these things.

     

    Fedex: Yeah, its going to arrive Friday.

    Me: Perfect, I'm off work Sat/Sun, I can work on the project, get it worki-

    Fedex: Nvm, it'll show up next Tuesday.

    Me: *rage*

     

    I just follow the current location of the package and after enough deliveries you get a feel for how long it'll be at each destination. With this you can workout how long it'll be before it gets to you (with the exception of spontaneous natural disasters).

    Some websites either don't give me other options outside of pickup in store (store being a couple 1000 miles away) or the alternative shipers being 3x as expensive for no apparent reason.

     

    Sometimes I use UPS,

    Sometimes Fedex,

    Sometimes USPS,

    Sometimes DHL.

     

    All depends on the website and what they're charging. I'm usually patient so I can put up with the wait if it means saving $10~20. Other times I REALLY want to get a project built or finished and I'm just missing that ONE part then Fedex pulls a number like this on me.

    This is why I don't like dealing with shipping companies on a regular basis. They are the last mile between you and your bounty. If they mess up, everyone suffers xD

    Since I'm "grown up" and have responsibilities to uphold it's extended my patience quite a bit. Me waiting for parts to come in is filled with work, college studies, or this thing people refer to as "exercise". So I'm not as bothered anymore if what I ordered doesn't come in on the Friday but the following Monday or Tuesday (that's not to say it never bothers me when it happens).
