Hope your having better luck then i did today.
Started out looking at the chinese carb for a guys husqvarna lawn tractor he had ordered. Turned out its different than the original, and won't work. Next, ups delivered my last honda snowblower part this afternoon. Started to assemble the blower pulley into the auger assembly only to find whoever welded the tubes together must of been stevie wonder. They ended up misaligned that the blower shaft would not fit inside them. I had to find a reamer that size for my sunnen machine to inside, and open those welded tube sections so the pulley shaft would fit nicely inside them. Finally the rest of the job went ok. Little red is waiting for some snow.
I guess it depends where its coming from to where it needs to go. Fedex didn't think it was very important i get my stuff in a timely manor.

Didn't it go through IowaI guess it depends where its coming from to where it needs to go. Fedex didn't think it was very important i get my stuff in a timely manor.
Maybe the freight truck got blown off the road?
It's a thing to do in Iowa, I have plenty of pics!
Those twisty hills are full of nasty some days when the windmills are turning
Geez, that makes me wonder. When i finally received the package, it looked like it'd been through a war. The box was smashed, and re-taped back together. Maybe someone thought it had something dangerous inside.
No, pretty hard to damage some specially bent thick steel brackets.

I disagree.
Just received parts that originated in NJ. They arrived on the expected date, 3 days after the order was shipped from the warehouse. Delivery location is in the middle of a cornfield in IA.
This time of year, the UPS, FedEx and USPS drivers are humping packages 7 days/week. I have seen FedEx drivers delivering packages at 9:00 pm. I have seen USPS delivering packages on SUNDAY. Yeah, a Govt employee working Sunday.
UPS and FedEx run on a tight delivery schedule. A specific amount of time is allowed for a delivery and the delivery route is planned. Deviations or delays can result in disciplinary action, fines or dismissal.
Take a minute to say Thank You to those drivers. They perform a hard service with much pressure and little reward.
I just had a package from ups that was expected today...it actually came saturday. All my shipments from ups have been spot on. With fedex they've been always late. Even usps is much better.
Its the guys that load the packages at the distribution terminals that have a tough job...they have to do so many packages an hour. If your finally able to require a route your far better off. All in all they get paid pretty well for a job not needing to know a lot.

Idk, only worked with some that had jobs with ups. I use to hear enough horror stories from them till they quit so they must be true.

All I know is FedEx packages appear to be 'cleaner' on the outer
UPS packages usually have a slimy element to 'em
Or perhaps its all in my head from past experiences
Kinda like that peanuts character that was dirty filthy
