Online shopping and shipping
Well I'm in the process of rebuilding my engine. I'm doing the bottom half as well as the top. So I order all the parts I need online (dennis kirk) They seem to have pretty good prices and quick delivery time. Well I order my parts and had them ship 2nd day air. Low and behold 2-3 days later I still have no parts. The thing is I need the parts to ship out with my crank to get it rebuilt. Well it seems the dumb ass ups driver can't just leave the package on the door step like all the others do. Also I didn't recieve a notification of attemped delivery. I really don't think the guy even tried. My roommate was home all day. I needed the parts fast so I could ship them out becuase I am going out of town on 5 july. Guess what? That's when my parts are coming in!!!! So I pay $10-15 extra for faster shipping for nothing. If they come when I'm home I'm letting the driver know exactly what I think of his company!!! And I've already sent the company a nasty letter as well as the goodd@mn ups. God I hate people!!!! What else should I do? Anybody know any good revenge tricks?

Hey,
I ordered a photocell for a microwave tower from Honeywell. (It is used to switch the tower lights from day mode to night mode) I paid for overnite delivery so I could avoid a $10,000 per hour fee for not being in compliance. Somehow UPS sent it to our nuclear power plant!!! I caught it when I tracked the package. Called Honeywell, they had the right address for me, but it seems that the billing was through our shipping department and the invoice was to go to the powerplant. So UPS says "oops" we will have it your way on the 5th! Right!!!
I had Honeywell ship another. This time next morning guaranteed. Cheaper than a fine. And I got 4 hours of double time to go install it today!!!
