When the Christmas Pay It Forward was going here, I claimed a fishing reel. It was sent FedEx the next business from NC.

It took THREE WEEKS for those incompetent bastards to get it to my house. For over two weeks, every night there was a phone message asking for directions to my house.

Every night I would give directions and when I got home from work, another message asking for directions as the driver couldn't find my house.

I finally got to speak to real person and when they asked where my house was, I replied "In the exact same spot since 1945"

There was silence on the other end

Two days later I had it in hand. How do they stay in business?

My package went to Orlando, and it didn't bring me back a t-shirt.

When I was still in the Air National Guard, we had this mechanic (who is still in, and is a traditional guardsman aka part timer) who is an A&P mechanic for FedEx. How anyone allows him to work on anything is beyond me. I had him with me on a deployment, and he was absolutely one of the most incompetent fcuks I've ever dealt with. Hell, at home station, they told him to inspect the engines on the jet for a pre flight or something, and he was like, "how do I do that?". Seriously????? You really just inspect for obvious damage, leaks, etc. I could inspect any engine on any aircraft with good results. Sounds like FedEx is good at hiring incompetent boobs....
