UPS — what?

Check this out.  The item was sent UPS 3-Day Select last Thursday.  It got to the location from which the delivery trucks are deployed last Friday, after two drives, three flights, and another drive.  Since they only count business days, they are not obligated to deliver it until Tuesday — which, it seems, is what they’re doing.  Did they just not put it on the truck or something?  Was there not room (it’s a small box), or did they not want to give an extra day of free service to their customers?  I don’t get it.

    As it happened, they did put it on the truck, and it was delivered today, they just didn’t change the delivery date until the item arrived.  This kind of last-minute rescheduling is a big reason why I use a PMB, but I’m not going to gripe about the sped-up service I received.
