Too funny! I just mention this place!

Roanoke, VA, United States 11/15/2011 11:17 P.M. Arrival Scan

So this could mean it could be coming from Kingsport. Which means that horrible driver! I so hope that is not the case I like the JC depot guy he is sooo great!

Because road isn't actually connected to anything (it rests on pilings), you have an odd feeling that you're flying around the mountains. Avoid any mind-altering drugs.
I don't like heights. That makes my stomach quesy just looking at it. I think I'd panic big time if I had to travel on it.

It's not bad. I am scared of heights too but the panoramic view from the viaduct is worth it. It's so wide you really don't feel at any moment you're not safe.

The view does look beautiful, but I would still panic. I am really, really afraid of heights.

Excellent! The efficient driver is bringing yours...perhaps he'll be quicker. Mine won't show up until five-ish but at least it's in town.

Yes I was so relieved to see it was coming from JC's depot. He usually comes between 11-3pm He really is great. Never leaves anything without signing for it. Always has a smile and is cheerful. Always says to take care and have a nice day even when he is sick. He is such a nice ole guy.

It must be the difference in the driver but mine never makes a second trip. If I weren't at home, he'd leave a big screen (or whatever) abandoned on my front porch with nary a qualm. The trouble really starts when the stand-in driver does almost the same thing...except it's my neighbor's porch.

My tracking said Out for Delivery at 8:34am and it arrived at my door a little past 7:00pm. I think the driver was sitting somewhere playing with his own Kindle Fire all day.

I've had that happen before this guy came. My neighbor's porch is the same as mine but I felt odd walking over to their side to get it.

I have complained to UPS when I ordered a PSU from Newegg and the guy who delivered it flung it up on the porch from the parking lot. It made such a metal clang I was livid and ran out there but he took off. I called and told them never send that guy again. Next thing I know I got this guy instead and have been happy ever since.

He wont leave anything unless you are there. I've only missed him twice and he leaves a notice when he will be back but I've learned to be ready to get my package or I'll have to wait but I don't mind this way I know no one can mess with it.

Keep your fingers crossed - Mine was scheduled to arrive "between 4:45 PM and 7:00 PM" today, normal home delivery time. About 20 minutes ago - 10:45 AM - the doorbell rang, and when I made it downstairs to answer, there were two UPS boxes on the porch, including the Fire(!). So good things can happen to those who wait...

I see you have "package abandonment" issues also. If I hurry, I can catch a glimpse of the driver hurrying away, my package(s) still spinning in a tight pirouette on my concrete porch.

Yes, but I'm in the burbs - Chicago means it is going East again. Oh well, I really should get it today.
