Things that make you go hmm

Well today was sorta intresting like most of my annoying days at fedex...

I goto side door, about to leave package, then hear some barking. Look to my right and i see a pit bull and some mixed dog. Absoultely great they are running around the yard with no leash. Knock on door to ask homeowner if doors next to her are friendly, she says one is the other might eat me. As she opens her door, her rotweiller who has to be at least 100lbs comes out. This thing was huge, it is even bigger then the last rotweiller which dropped me to the ground. Hers is "Friendly", so he follows me to the truck like a armed escort scaring the other dogs away, until he starts barking like crazy at me at which point i dive for the truck and wave goodbye. I swear the rotweiller could have ate the pitbull as a appetizer, this thing was as big as a great dane.

I am weaving in and out of streets making my way to the main road. Make a quick right and the truck is still turning but going straight, however my speed is about 25, 30. At this point it swings all the way around and im sideways still going 20, then im 180 degrees around and going about 10 and finnaly stopped. The good side was i didn't hit the curb and flip the truck.

Lastly i have a package for a HS, its after hours though so no ones is there. I make it about a foot into the school before some lady gives me a attitude. "Who are you and what are you doing in here" Annoyed that the big fedex truck or the fedex beanie im wearing doesnt tip her off, i just say main office where. To which she gives me a retard escort to it instead of saying right there. Its like i was a terrorist who somehow stole a fedex truck, changed his skin color to white, got a long island accent, stuffed 5000lbs of explosives into a 2 by 2 inch box and decided to goto her empty school.

Concluding this i think every week i should post journals about the stupidest people and things i encounter at work, like "whats in the box" or "i dont want this now can u bring it back another day".

Why didn't you bring me the snow globe I ordered from Amazon.com. It was supposed to come today but didn't.

hahahaha speaking of snow globes, last week i tossed a package onto the ground. All of a sudden a clear substance came out of all the corners of the box. I wasnt touchin it but i got package handler to, turns out it was water nothing dangerous. However the snow globe inside broke spilling out the liquid, scratch one snow globe!

dude, you're lucky. those situations coulda been worse. don't you have a diad/communicator/signature type dealy to hit those wild dogs with. well, you could use the box. but what if all you have is oen of those lil gevalia boxes or just a letter? you're in trouble. do they make doggy pepper spray? mmm. as for the driving. be safe. the consumers can wait.

my friend mike from my kingdom hall ordered a nextel phone through me...except he didn't want his mom to know...so i tracked the package online (b/c it came directly from nextel) - i sent him an IM at school "dude, it's on the truck 3 days early, on its way to your house!" the kid called me up all panicked his mom was gonna flip.

he called me 3 hours later to say all was cool - he intercepted the fed ex guy by going to the bathroom during class at the exact time the fed ex guy came to his school...he was like "yo, hook a brotha up", and was instantly walking around high school with a brand new nextel i530. wow.
