Can someone explain to me how the heck UPS works? I ordered an item that shipped from Syracuse (upstate NY). I live in PA, just one state south. The package went to Harrisburg, about an hour from where I live, down to North Carolina, about 5 hours to the state line! Now it is back in PA. How? Also ordered some dresses for my girls. They shipped from Pittsburgh which is in western PA all the way to Bridgeport NJ. It totally skipped where I live. I am banging my head at this logistics failure.
Postal service started sending all our mail out of town then it comes back to our city. This started a couple of years ago. What used to take one day to get somewhere now takes three. Progress.Hee, hee ... they call that progress, I believe. Had a funny deja vu, not with UPS, but with the post office. I wish I had saved the story (this happened many years ago). It was at a time when Maine (and other states) had to comply with some new rules about central distribution areas for all mail. Up to that point, everything was handled locally, from start to finish, and it worked quite well--particularly in rural areas.
I don't have specifics on the new rules, but basically, all mail had to first be driven down to (I think) it was Portland, in the southern part of the state. That, in itself, was delaying delivery by a day, by adding an extra step that was not used before. (Also, keep in mind that Maine is a very large state.)
So a few of the post office mail carriers got together, and delivered the mail (they only got away with this once) the "old" way, to prove to the post office that their method was more expeditious. They used post office trucks, small boats with outboard motors going down lakes and rivers, and one or two guys rode horseback (like the Pony Express)! In all instances above, their delivery time was faster than the "new" efficient system!
I didn't get to ride the new one because it wasn't open in September, but I did ride the Smuggler one and it was fun. The video I saw of the new one looks awesome, but even without it, the land itself is a sight to behold. I would take a whole day just to soak in all the detail in the place. People tend to forget that it really isn't just the rides that have made Disney the place to be, it is the ride and the theme that has done that. SWL has that in buckets and I am not now nor have ever been a SW fan. Sorry SWG!Not really as not knowing when we will get back I'm kinda not super excited for sw land
I miss those warm beignets already!!!!
I have never been a SW geek. Don’t see the films so I’m not even going attempt. Road a gondola with a woman who yester day almost made it on when the cut off the slots.

I’m not going to watch any spoiler videos or read any spoilers. I want to be surprised in March. I will look at a picture or two because that won’t tell the whole story or experience.
I kinda thought you might wait. I just wanted to kinda get a feel for it before we do it.I’m not going to watch any spoiler videos or read any spoilers. I want to be surprised in March. I will look at a picture or two because that won’t tell the whole story or experience.
"cost cuts". aka cheapening by removing the local sorting office.Postal service started sending all our mail out of town then it comes back to our city. This started a couple of years ago. What used to take one day to get somewhere now takes three. Progress.
