If you're expecting a package to come UPS and it doesn't show up,call the Post Office. UPS is here anywhere from 2-5 days a week. My wife was expecting a package Tuesday. When it didn't come yesterday,she tracked it online. They said it was delivered yesterday at 1:08 PM. We looked everywhere around here that we thought he could have left it. Nothing. Late this morning,she got ahold of somebody from UPS by phone. They said the package had been delivered to the Post Office,that we were in a rural area that they didn't deliver to,all kinds of excuses. Within a couple of minutes,the UPS truck drove in. Another package,but not the one she was waiting for. She told him about what she'd been told. He checked his hand held and said "yes",he had delivered it to the Post Office yesterday. Said that lately he'd had a lot of packages going to different ones around,but didn't think too much about it at first. Just thought they were going to Post Office boxes. Said about 3 weeks ago a Post Master in another little town near here told him that there was a deal between UPS and USPS for USPS to make final delivery of some of their packages. He said that they are unionized and he didn't know how the union let them get away with it. Said it was taking trucks and drivers off the road and that now he was up to anywhere from 8 to 20 stops a day that he wasn't making. He said to make matters worse,if he had 3 packages for me,and 2 had a PT in the code,he could only leave one here. The ones with that code HAVE to go to the Post Office for final delivery. Said he knows that because it's happened. Don't THAT just beat all? You can use your own imagination as to who is behind getting the union to give up jobs in order to help out the bankrupt Postal System. Just saying. We've notified UPS that anytime a shipper gives us a choice between them and Fed Ex,we'll take Fed Ex. Unless we find out they've been coerced into this scam too.

By the way,the package that should have been here Tuesday,the mailman brought it about 3:30 today.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
