@FedExHelp Sure, I'll just post that info publicly. How about bank account info and Social Security Number too?

Based on prior posts from this account, there's supposed to be a link for a DM. Even in trying to rectify the situation @FedEx drops the ball. Thanks for proving my point.😂😂

Tis the season when @FedEx posts fictional delivery dates on their tracking site without the ability to deliver. Last week a driver came to our house, took a blurry picture of a package, marked ours delivered, then drove off. I guess that counts as an on time delivery?

[Ricci L. Reber, Ph.D. @reber_econ]

Another incident today. Package was scheduled between 11 and 3 (signature required). I took half a day off to be home, only to find out the package hasn't even made it to the local distribution center yet. When I called customer service, they hung up on me twice.

Unbelievable effort from Ramon Fuentes of the Yankees grounds crew here from the Bronx tonight. While a lot of credit will go to Judge, let’s not forget Ramon Fuentes either

[Rory McIlroy Tracker @RMTracker]

Telling the fans to shut the f*** up then hitting it to 3 feet to ice the match is pretty nails if we’re being honest https://t.co/HqkG7whNiq

[Ricci L. Reber, Ph.D. @reber_econ]

Love it.

Rory McIlroy silenced a heckler with an expletive before hitting a superb approach to clinch victory for him and Tommy Fleetwood in their foursomes match.

Yes...I forgot about the curly fries. @RobbyBerger, what's your plan for the @BMWchamps at Caves Valley? Can we get a Feed Bob from #baltimore? Steamed crabs, crab cakes? Think about it.

Arby’s just keeps on swinging

[Isaac Yitzy Schleifer @CouncilmanYitzy]

In this year’s budget, there’s a proposal that can potentially raise over 600 fees and collect more than $26 million in increased taxes/fees from our residents — at a time when families are already struggling with rising costs. Utility bills are climbing fast, and 9% annual water bill increases have sadly become the new norm.

We also learned today that the city is carrying thousands of vacant positions, valued at approximately $270 million. Since we know we won’t fill 90% of these jobs — many of which don’t directly serve residents — we have a clear opportunity to close the budget gap without raising taxes/fees.

Now is the time to cut property taxes and fees, not increase them. Baltimore City residents deserve relief, not MORE financial burdens.

@sarbear12384 You've seen my golf game. I think we both know that question is moot.

[Ricci L. Reber, Ph.D. @reber_econ]

As a C-list #economist toiling away in obscurity, writing commentary on the #economy and #markets, I completely relate. When my kids' friends hear about The Reber Report, I'm sure we'll have the same conversation.

[Flushing It @flushingitgolf]

Rory just told a really cool story at the Masters about the first time his daughter, Poppy, realised he was famous.

“The day after The Players she went into school and there was a couple of kids had said stuff to her. She came home to me that day and said ‘Daddy, are you famous?’”

Love that 😂

What I like most: every winner gets to bring a guest to play a round at Augusta the Sunday before #TheMasters...and Scottie Scheffler brought his mom.

The 15 things a Masters champion gets.

I was curious exactly what comes with winning at Augusta. So I researched it and came up a list of everything that comes with a Masters victory in 2025.
