it agrivates me that some people think that when they pay 3 day shipping or w.e that they will get it with in three days, yes you do pay for it so yes you should get it./QUOTE]
Once it has left the place it was purchased (aka "been shipped"), then it should be three day. Obviously, it's not "3 day shipping" as soon as you click "purchase" or "checkout". I mean, your order has to be processed and packaged and then sent out.
But i worked at FedEx Ground as a truck loader, and in QC aswell, and worked every job in the facility. I worked at the Pittsburgh Hub that handles any and all Ground packages for the greater Pittsburgh area, and cross country shipping.
Trust me when i say this, he did not 'forget' your package. It was merely staged off the truck due to not having enough room. Some companies such as Bed, Bath, and Beyond get ALOT of stuff, and i mean, like 200+ packages a day. So your package was left off due to not enough room, so the driver sacrificed your package to fit on a bigger 1 stop delivery, and stores like BBB and others only take one drop off, once a day, at a specific time, so its not like they can go back to the Hub and get more stuff, it is run like a well oiled machine, to make the most money with the least inconveniences and still provide the best possible service. Sure it sucks, but thats how it works.

Okay. So you're telling me that just because you worked for a shipping company means you are going to speak to the credibility of every delivery man...that their 'mistake' wasn't truly a 'mistake'? Really?...I mean,
really?
Just because I own a computer business doesn't mean I'm going to stand up for Geek Squad when they make a mistake, saying that it was "honest" and "to make the best of the situation".
G.S.:"Oops. I accidentally copied your pr0n folder over to my jump drive...it was an 'honest mistake'" (<Sarcasm).
Me: "Yup. Totally an honest mistake. He didn't mean to do that at all. Everyone is credible" (<Sarcasm).
I'm not trying to sound like a d1ck here. Yes, people do make mistakes, but some people also do give a flying f about their job either. It's not fair to compare the two; especially when you don't have the information behind them such as in the situation above. We won't ever know if it was an honest mistake, an intentional mistake, or a guy that just doesn't give a F about his job.
