Time Travel

Several months ago, I ordered several parts from Marina for a robot that was eaten by a large dog.

Most of the items were shipped right away, but the wheels kits were on back order. They finally shipped a few days ago.

They shipped by the USPS and I have been using their tracking number to see where they were.

They showed out for delivery at 6:10 AM today, March 6th.

They also showed delivered at 2:08 PM today, March 6th.

I find this odd, as it is now only 9:50 AM today, March 6th. :mrgreen:

So apparently my post man has the ability to time travel into the future to deliver my parts. Unfortunately, I will have to wait for time to catch up so I can see them.

Thanks,

Jim R.

I’ve had this issue before. The mail person at the time marked everything as delivered when it was loaded into their truck and then I’d get it at some point either the same or next day. It was frustrating.

All,

My apologies to the USPS!!!!! I am an idiot. :rolleyes:

So apparently I "time traveled" back in time to Mar 6th. Sigh!!

When I check on my shipment, it showed Out for Deliver on April 6th. When I checked later it showed delivered on March 6th, because I looked up an old tracking number.

But come on, what are the chances of having a delivery from Marina on the 6th of March and the 6th of April..

I knew time travel was a hoax... :mrgreen:

Embarrassed for sure,

Jim R.
 
In your defense, Usps tracking can get weird. There’s a mysterious package that I get an email about every day for the last week that says its arrived & or departed memphis & is traveling through the network. I have no idea who it’s from & there’s no estimated delivery date. It’s like its a ghost package that they scan in & out every day but it never really leaves the building 🤣
Everything I have ordered has arrived & everything I have shipped out has been delivered.
