Of all of the wonderfully strange things that happen to me in my life, this is right up there... I am tucked away in the corner of the Delta lounge at DCA when a lounge agent comes up to me with a glass of Champagne and a lovely cake and wishes me Happy Birthday! Thanks @Delta

PS I have tried every day to get someone to help me (6+ hours of hold time) and I get a different story each time. Yesterday, one rep told me "just report the package as lost and start over" Really? Come on @FedEx get your act together! UPS has delivered multiple times already!

[The Vine Guy @thevineguy]

Dear @FedEx the Grinch didn't steal Christmas, you did! I ordered a special gift for my wife in time to be delivered on 12/22. It's 12/31 and it's still in a SLC depot for over a week with no delivery scheduled. You don't just deliver packages, you deliver love. And you failed!
