Don't you just love it when

... You know you're the last stop for FedEx. I know the driver is eating a sandwich right now around the corner having the last laugh.

Apparently there's some kind of a talent people have sometimes, it's called patience. Now I don't know about you but I've never been able to develop that one while waiting for such a gift neither!

...or worse, he delivers your package to the wrong house!

When I was waiting for my Daytona on a Saturday morning delivery, I could see him on the next block making other deliveries. That was the longest 20 minutes I can remember in a long time

When a retailer ships to me by FedEx, I have them leave the package at the FedEx/Kinkos a few blocks from my house. They send me a text message when it arrives and I drop by there to pick it up.

I don't feel the necessity to hang around all day waiting for the driver to show up and I know he won't leave the package so one of my neighbors can steal it while I'm gone.
