question: if my package is coming from Canada, and i live in upstate new york... why the hell is it in Pennsylvania right now???? what is the point of going PAST ny.. JUST to come back the next day??? >:(
It's just the way their "logistics" (an oxymoron) are set up.
It's kind of like flying on TWA back in the days when that airline existed. They used to say, "On TWA you can get to heaven or hell...but you have to stop over in St. Louis." I remember flying NY-Chicago-St Louis--DesMoines, Iowa. ???? That was TWA's idea of the "most direct connection."
Maybe I understand why they went bust. In the business TWA was translated: Tomorrow We Arrive!
