The journeys our gifts take

[BullChick]

If you order your gifts online, you probably pay attention to the daily tracking activity. Sometimes the updates, and lack there of, can really make you wonder what is going on.
This thread is for you!! May I ask that you watch the language? I’m seeing too much strong language in threads.

Your package is crying, alone in a cold, dark trailer. As the truck driver pulls into a Flying J, he thinks he hears something. The sounds of Diesel engines and generators fills his ears, so he dismisses the sound, and goes in for breakfast. Your package takes a shuddering breath, and the tears now fall silently. They trickle down, blurring the label. Your package cannot be delivered. “Label unreadable.”

I had a package shipped and insured from NYC. Last tracking update was in NJ on 30 NOV. Now it just says enroute/delayed. Doesn't say where it is. Must be a big secret!

AHA! I have figured it all out. They dropped it off in a box for Santa to pick up and deliver!

Just listen for the sleigh bells, then you'll understand.

Something that was supposed to arrive next Wednesday showed up on our doorstep today.

Don't hate me...

Something that was supposedly not shipped yet arrived yesterday. I got an email Thursday night saying it was delayed, and they would let me know when it was shipped.

From the east coast to the west coast and back in 24 hours. It’s arriving today. I’m telling ya, our packages would have some crazy stories to tell!

I had a package due tomorrow, but expected today. It was nearby for two days, and suddenly… it was flown 16 hours away.

I have two packages in NJ that have been sitting there a month. I’m four hours away.
