Why I Hate Crockett -by Shonuff

[Shonuff]

So I have this job that I go to every day.

Crockett mails me an SX-R wetpipe via FedEx and requires a signature. It's a seven hundred dollar item and he needs to be sure it arrives to the appropriate party, but:

I have this job that I go to every day. Every day.

So Tuesday, there's a sticker on my door saying FedEx attempted delivery but I was at work.

Wednesday, there's a sticker on my door saying FedEx attempted delivery but I was at work.

Thursday, there's a sticker on my door saying FedEx attempted delivery but I was at work.

I called FedEx and said I can pick it up at my local station as it is like five minutes from my house. I go there this morning and they have no idea about my package.

Turns out, that particular station is an "Express Delivery" station and my package is at the "warehouse hub" in Olive Branch, Mississippi thirty minutes from my house. AAAAAAANNNNNDDD, they're not open on Mondays.

So - in summation:

I hate you, Crockett, and thanks for the pipe should I ever receive it. I'll try again tomorrow at lunch. :sadwavey:

So close, yet so far!!!!!!!!

Man, at least he shipped it, unlike some people with carb screws sitting on their desk instead of being in Memphis.

 

[Shonuff]

That's a good point.

Yeah, that Crockett.
In June I needed a CDI to get a ski fixed before a camping trip.
I left Crockett a phone message on the off chance that he might have one in his shop, since at the time he was the only other rider I knew in Bakersfield.
I came back from church and there is a box of 3 CDIs on my porch with a note from Crockett saying "I'm not sure this is your house but the boat in the driveway looks like the one in your [old] avatar, hope it helps". I don't even know how he got my address, but thanks to him I had to ride that afternoon AND take both my skis camping the next week.
He is a real pain.
Oh yeah, it wasn't long after that he made me ride his RN, and was trying to get me to ride his new SXR. #%^&*^*!

Sorry guy's . . . it's genetic . . . .

Sho . . . I'm glad you finally got the pipe, I just didn't want some FedEx guy dumping it on your front lawn and haulin' azz . . . . so I required a signature. . . .:sad6:


Midlake . . . . I guess I also owe you an apology for dragging you up to Lake Isabella last weekend and "making" you camp out and ride the big lake too . . huh ? I realize it can be terribly confusing figuring out what the heck to do with all that open water, boat wakes and what not !


:biggrin:
