    Fed Ex sucks
    Pretty sure the seasonal temp driver they had in my hood was on meth. Certainly not someone I'd want to open the door for.

    My money is on:
    A - they speared it with the forklift and are trying to cover their asses by not admitting to that
    B - assuming it was shipping in its branded box someone took it home for themselves

    FedEx in my area sucks donkey dick!

    I did have a decent delivery from FedEx today; it was ONLY one day late. But the kid making the delivery was helpful and didn't complain when I asked him to help me carry it to the porch, as it was large and heavy. It wasn't his fault that my box sat in Memphis for an extra day. So I gave him kudos on the delivery.

    I don't argue with not buying into the ideas, but it still comes down to so many Dbags out there buying into it. Just like gas....oil profits that are record breaking and now egg producers making record profit!!! Murica!
    Also, it's obviously more than just supply and demand, but if we as consumers continue to buy into the bs....only the consumers lose.

    MORON REPORT
    Last week boss told me to put a project on hold. No further explanation.
    Today he asks me why the project is hold hold.
    Me: Uhhhh....because you told me to? :notsure:
    Him: *crickets*
    M: You don't remember why you told me to huh?
    H: *crickets*
    M: What do I do? Keep it on hold or work on it?
    H: Keep it on hold and I'll get back to you...


    50/50 that he'll ask me again tomorrow why it's still on hold :frusty:

    Oh that's nothing, Weesa. Just put some surgical tape around it.
    You'll be good to go in a few days :)
    I've had much worse blisters on me feet after working 14 hours a day.
    Maybe put some Neosporin on it to prevent infection ;)

    You need to put duct tape on that to keep the moisture out.

    But it hurted! :(
    Bandaids and neo so it doesn't get snagged on my socks or sheets or carpet

    Also...pro tip: to prevent blisters on your feets put some moleskin over the tender areas and then put duct tape over that. Duct tape keeps the friction down and is awesome to prevent blisters.
    Always get weird looks when I'm sitting on my tailgate at a trailhead wrapping my feets in duct tape :laugh:
    But I'm mot a man :notsure:
