I hate FedEx so much...

So, my new* laptop was supposed to arrive today...but of course they tried to deliver it while there was no one at home.  Why they make residential deliveries at 11:30am while most people are at work I'll never know...anyway.  I left a note for the delivery person to try to redeliver at a certain time when I knew there would be people home...but no, of course they couldn't do that.  So I had to drive down to the distribution center in Clarkstion, 50 miles away, trying to balance getting there before they closed at 7 and not getting there before the delivery truck returned.  Stupid place is back from the road about 100' with no real signage so I drove past it like three times...then it was about 7:10 and I still hadn't found it so I started back for home, breaking into tears over the fact that I'd wasted basically my entire evening for nothing...through some divine providence or something though on my way out I spotted a FedEx truck returning from its deliveries and followed it back to the center (which is the *only* way I ever would have found it, see comment of 100' back with no signage), and thankfully they were willing to get my package for me.  The fact that I was still on the verge of tears may have helped with that.  So they got the package...which was open on one side.  ANGRY!  Thankfully it looks like nothing fell out, everything at least appeared to be there.  Got home, had tea, did my WoW dailies, had tea, had pickles...feeling better now.  Shame I had to spend the majority of my evening driving...

I hate FedEx.  SO freaking much.

*It's a refurb, so not "new" new, but still.
