I can understand that there are problems. But airplanes have been flying, trains have been running, and there are only small sections of road between southern California and southern Florida that have been slowed down... none for six days. It takes less than three days for an 18-wheeler to make that run. Give them a full day for backed up roads, even two days, and the'd still make the run in five days. But UPS FLYS stuff coast to coast... They only use trucks for state to state local runs.
I placed an order for fencing gear with a company in China. They shipped via FedEx on Wednesday. I received it today in northern Thailand. NOT in BANGKOK... waaay up here in the boonies, 12 hours north of the big city. Three days from China to Northern Thailand, two international borders, two customs clearances, and it still managed to get here in three days. UPS can't go state to state in less than six? Something is rotten in the state of Denmark!
