I always have problems with fedex
They pull up and see my long driveway, and keep on trucking. When I look on line at the tracking, says not a real address, unable to deliver


I call the local office on the phone so much, the person who answers usually recognizes me. Very next day, package is here.

I try not to use them, but sometimes there is no other option

Trouble with Fedex is that sometimes they do a "drop shipment" at the post office for them to deliver. I expected a shipment in Virginia, Fedupx dropped it at the PO even though the delivery truck went by the house a couple of times a day. PO ended up forwarding the package to NY address and wanted a forwarding fee. Which I didn't pay. (Local PO took care of it)

Off topic, Did Wade ever find his pants??

Hey guys. I hate Fed Ex. Their tracking system is pretty much useless. Going to be a busy week here again. Looks like we may be going to exended hours next week. Ug.

Hey Neil! Yeah, we're working on it. Started 3 of the 4 reactor coolant pumps over the weekend, those came up just fine. Should be doing the 4th here today or tomorrow.

Depends on what has been done. If it's just a quick shutdown, you can start it back up pretty quickly.

Nope. Too many variables. Well, I gotta run, taking my daughter in for her flu-mist treatment. I'll catch you guys tomorrow!
