Rant on shipping

[fried1765]

No, I'm three towns down from the county line. Some of the last stimulus went to buying chicks and raising them to eating size... I gave 10 to each of my nearest food pantries in Danforth and Haynesville. It wasn't much in the overall scheme of things but... it would have been more, except I messed up and lost a few when they were half grown.

Coyotes?

Washington County is the poorest in the state.

Coyotes?

No, they all piled onto one another and suffocated 5. I should have had a back entrance to the little coop I had made inside their cage.

Just checked and no extra deposits in any of the accounts I look after... several are social security seniors with direct deposit and basically live on social security.

Mine shows as pending with deposit date of tomorrow.

So, are these checks being shipped by courier, UPS, FedEx, USPS or some other method and what does tracking show?

^^^^^
I suspect they may happen in alphabetical order. I also could be wrong (again )

Zip codes, social security numbers, banking institution, ect....

If I remember correctly, the Bush stimulus was sent out based on the first 3 digits of your social security number.

So it pretty much progressed east to west based on where you were born.

Last time I thought it was people who had filed their tax returns who were first in line. It took them longer to get the info from Social Security for those who had not filed returns.

Tiny little insignificant item that I don't really even care about, Just a filler item, but I don't get why it's been sitting there so long.

Saw a real mail truck on our rural road yesterday. White box type truck with all the markings. Never saw one out here before.

They probably don’t really care about your business.

No rant here but a very weird delivery today. I have gotten hundreds of packages delivered to my home for both business and personal. Knock on wood... but we have never had an issue with Amazon Prime. Friday I ordered an item and it said scheduled for Sunday delivery. Okay but Monday or later would be fine with me.

We were not home when I received an email that the package was delivered. Got home and there was no package at the front door. Looked again at the email notification and saw they included a picture of the package at the door. Never seen a pic attached before but... that wasn't my door... looked hard at it thinking maybe it was a neighbor's door.

Hold on... that is my back door to our daylight basement! WTH? The delivery person would have had to walk down a gravel side driveway not even close to our front door. Why? I am really curious now what he or she was thinking. If I didn't see or recognize the photo I would have filed a complaint for a never delivered package. We sometimes go weeks if not a month using that back entry.

Maybe caution against porch pirates...

Everyday I see Amazon packages ripped open laying in the roadway... it is at epic levels now.

Pictures are normal.
