A tale of a shipping


While in India I did my requisite shopping - hey, just trying to support the economy. Laden with tunics and cloth as well as my already overstuffed bag, I decided to ship most of my new purchases instead of carry them.


After packing everything up and preparing the FedEx paperwork, I had to meet with the FedEx carrier to clear my shipment prior to sending. That was new. First, he reviewed my paperwork. Then apprised the box. Then the paperwork. Then he proceeded to open the box and unpack all of the contents and finally re-tape on top of the now torn open tape. Odd. I guess a good way to save money on x-ray machines?


Always an experience!
