Excuses for late shipping, good ones.

[BP]

So I just heard someone say one of their trucks was hijacked by illegals in the valley so we need to send another part.

I've heard about trucks having accidents, being stuck on the ice, heck I've even been told that a driver forgot to close the doors and an engine fell out of the back. The hijacking was a new one though.

What are the other good excuses freight companies use?

I have to come up with good bullshit excuses, since the truth is so unbelievable.

Oh yeah, the driver having a heart attack was another good one.

Train derailment was one that happened to one of my packages a while back.

I had a motherfucker tell me once that he went on vacation the week he received my money and he would ship it once he got back...

Wanted to make sure your funds were legit...

lol.

This bitch not only took off for a week but, when he got back it took three more days to provide me a tracking number. And of course it was USPS, three different boxes, one of which got lost. It was a nightmare to say the least. It took over a month to get it all worked out and I never received the third and most important box...

I'm still waiting on a guy from Nigeria to transfer the rest of my funds. Everytime we talk I have to come up with more money for another fee.

I've had the heart attack excuse before. I also had one where the truck was stolen.

I used to work for a freight company, BAX Global, we almost delayed a space shuttle launch because we lost the antenna. After a month or so it turned up. I wish I knew details of why it was lost and then how it was found, so this post wouldn't suck.

Great fucking movie!

My sister used to be a shipping/receiving clerk for a fairly large defense contractor (ryhmes with Homey Smell) and it always amazed me that we were sending classified avionics gear through a bunch of warehouses staffed by temp agencies. I guess Israel has to get their aircraft parts from somewhere, I just figured there was a more secure way of doing it.

That happened to me with UPS once when waiting for an AR15.
