A Meeskite: Secret this was so brilliant, I had to share it with my friends as well!

A Meeskite: I think this is one of those delivery people from hell stories that is incredibly true, and
frankly laughable:

I ordered chew toys for our huge Bernese mountain dog (2 years old 140 pounds!) because Chukker has been chewing anything he can sink his teeth into...

including a live telephone charger that he knawed into fraying a wire.... how he didn't get electrocuted- he is One Lucky Chukker!! but I digress.....

Chewy uses FedEx exclusively. The first time an order was delivered, it was left on the
street, which is a shared 1 lane winding road surrounded on either side by creeks.
It happened to have been raining, and the box was exposed to the elements. It was not close to the mailbox. The drivers have been told to please drop packages up at the doorstep, anyone could take the package.

I called Chewy as well as FedEx and lodged a complaint against the delivery of the
package. I was assured that it wouldn't happen again. By both companies.

A small squeek toy for Jill's doxie was shipped separately but didn't squeek, I called Chewy who kindly to sent out another plush hedgehog... and that is when the really weird part happened: The toy was placed by the farm's horse logo and name, a mere
3 feet in from the street. Again I called both companies and complained that it wasn't dropped up the drive to the big circular area in front of the garage or continue on the road to the barn....every other delivery service delivers to the door. Again, I was assured it would be handled through the proper channels and corrected.

It gets better... ready?


Housemate Jill was about to turn into the driveway when a FedEx van lurched to a sort of stop... the driver proceeded to THROW THE PACKAGE in the general direction of the mailbox much to the stunned surprise of Jill. The FedEx driver then (swear to G-d!) ran over the package. He then decided to get out of the van and get the package from under his tire. Too bad he neglected to put the van in PARK, and the van started rolling down the street. He finally caught up to the van, got in, backed up and handed the package to Jill.

This time I had an eye witness. Called FedEx and waited 42 minutes on hold to file a complaint against the driver AGAIN, and Jill informed them as to what tanspired. After she was done, she handed me the phone and there was NO ONE THERE. I called again, and after a relatively quick 37 minutes, I was told a complaint would be filed and they took my phone number for further contact.

I called Chewy. I told them I would not accept delivery of the crushed box, and would like to show them what little regard FedEx has for their merchandise. I started telling him what happened with, "Have I got a story for you, that I bet beats them all!" We laughed about it, and he told me he would replace my order. I asked him if I could swap a Blue's clues stuffed toy for the Doxie, instead of Sonicand he did that for me.
Chewy has always been a nice company for pet supplies.

But there's more!!!! This is where it gets even MORE WEIRD

The rep at Chewy replaced the ENTIRE ORDER including everything I got for both dogs. This is an abundance of riches. Guess who delivers it again?

Stay tuned.
