FedUp with FedEx

Anyone know what's with FedEx in Memphis?

I've had a FedEx express delivery package stuck in Memphis for 10 days now, with still no scheduled delivery date (original scheduled delivery date was last Monday).

The customer service people know nothing - is there a strike or a Covid outbreak or something else going on there??

Fed Ex, UPS, USPS, if it's coming from the east it takes longer. Sometimes a lot longer. We're near Denver.

The railroads' service is the worst I've seen in 30 years. FedEx and UPS use rail lots.

A few months ago I ordered something thru Amazon (3rd party seller), it shipped FedEx from Nevada. Got to the region just fine then "out for delivery." For 2 weeks it was "out for delivery." I ended up cancelling and requesting a refund. The day after the refund was credited it showed up (I shipped it back)

Left Memphis late PM today and now at sort depot in Calgary.

I hope I don't get charged extra for storage!
