UPS teases me about my Samsung Q1 Ultra Premium
That's just SO not right. I know the Samsung Q1 Ultra Premium shipped yesterday and I paid for 2nd Day Air service. That means I should have the device as early as tomorrow, but I thought it also meant I'd be able to track it today. You know, like hit my browser refresh button a few hundred times today just for the chance to see one, maybe two location updates. I may get the device tomorrow, but I think I'm getting ripped off today. It's all part of the experience UPS! Or am I the only one who does this? ;)
Update: Oh UPS. Still no tracking data and now you have the nerve to ring my doorbell... with an unexpected package for Barb?!? Evil. Pure evil.
'Twas the day before delivery
When all through the net,
Not an update was posted,
On Kevin's brand new tablet.
The refresh button
Was clicked with great care,
In hopes a UPS truck
Soon would be there.
While the readers all clamored
Over flat cordless mice,
Kevin was fixated
On a brand new device.
He tried a distraction:
New websites to code.
But all he could think of
Was Samsung drivers to load.
When all of a sudden
What appeared on the site?
Oh, it's just James
With a Fujitsu insight.
On comes the frustration,
"That's just SO not right."
The unboxing video
Would wait one more night.

If this was our current contest, we'd have a winner. ;)

Ah, so THAT's the problem eh? I'll be sure that our new commenting system has no CAPTCHA except for your comments. I know how much you love that feature. ;)

I had the same thing happen to me while awaiting my MacBook. A package for my wife came earlier in the day, and almost gave me a heart attack.

Glad to hear I am not in the "hit refresh" when a package is due (and the UPS button gets a temporary home on my menu bar :) )
More than likely it is "in the air"
