Yet another example...

...of shipping being cursed.  This one does not involve life and death it's just weird. 

I took a box to the post office.  3 people were ahead of me and everything was fine.  As the lady was weighing my box and typing in information suddenly her keyboard quit working.  She switched to another computer and it wouldn?t print out the receipt and shipping info.  She knew how much so I paid and left the box with her.

The truck picks up their boxes at 4 o'clock.  I will phone them after 4 and see if they got their problems sorted.  If so, I?ll send the recipient the tracking number.   I've already informed him about what happened.  If not, I?ll pick the box up in the morning and take it to work with me, then bring it home after work, retank the fish, give the poor starving things a good feed and try again next Monday.

I just couldn't wait until 4 to call them.  I was so afraid that the recipient would think that I was making an excuse.  Y'all know that I'm honest but someone new to me doesn't know.  Everything is fine.  The lady who answered the phone said that they re-booted the entire system which took a bit of time but that everything was working again.  I just sent the guy his tracking number

Good to hear it worked out Liz.
