Dear UPS:

[yendi]

Please do not use a TARDIS for package delivery, as that's a notoriously unreliable form of transportation.

I make this request based on the following tracking info for an item I ordered from Amazon on Friday, May 14:

TARDIS Express

When it absolutely has to get there before you sent it.

[wednesday]

Or twenty years later.

...or both. :)

Yes, but *eventually* it does get to you. Even if it has to traverse all manners of time & space to do it!

Oh, thank you, UPS, for making my evening :D

giggle... maybe it's a problem with time zones, they are a few thousands of timezones away!

Is there maybe a Chelmsford Triangle, a little cousin of the Bermuda Triangle?

UPS recycles their tracking numbers. Occasionally you'll see one that has a delivery date of over a year ago, it means they're reusing the code and their system just hasn't updated with the current delivery expectation. I've seen it happen.

that's why it's "quantum notify"-- otherwise it'd be near impossible to track the package while in transit in their new TARDIS delivery system :P

That's hilarious. I love the TARDIS connection. However, before you dump all the blame on UPS, we need to make sure the item you ordered didn't cause the problem. Didn't Amazon do a blue box special on worm holes a while back?
