Part 11 - Walking across the US.....

So Pierce Manifolds is a great company to do business with. UPS is not. UPS are cloth eared sloth's. UPS is an acronym for Untimely Parcel Service. Pierce Manifolds pulled a rabbit out of a hat, got all the parts for my Weber carb makeover together from stock even though they were moving most of their inventory to a vintage race meeting over a 3 day weekend. They got my order out by UPS 9 hours after I ordered - amazing. Why? because I needed it in a hurry.
Then mighty Brown sent all their hard work down the shitter 3-5 day shipping is 3-5 BUSINESS days, oh and it doesn't include the day it shipped out, oh yes.... it doesn't include weekends, OH or holidays, oh or the day they are catching up after the holidays, in fact its called 3-5 days and we will probably lose the shipment along the way........ Turns out one of their employees is walking from California with it in a satchel.....that's how it feels anyway.
This is an uplifting blog, I wasted an entry - if you need anything in a reasonable amount of time ( NOT 11 days) DON'T ship UPS - in fact - just don't ship UPS, they suck!

Ill be back with the blog WHEN the stuff gets here..........
