Sign in to disble this ad
hey, was just checking the tracking on a bass, and it says "out for delivery" and was labeled that at 1:39am, its now 2:09 am....


does that mean its just sitting on the truck till the driver gets there in the morning, or should i stay up all night? lol

edit: it also says the status is in transit.... oy

Yeah they don't deliver in the middle of the night. Get your sleep and greet the man when he's at your door when you wake up.

That means it's loaded on the delivery truck. You'll have it sometime today. They don't just load one package, deliver it, then go back for the next package.

lol its my belief that every building in the world should be linked by a vacume delivery system and packages should just be shot to my home lol


but yea, it shouldnt say "out for delivery" then, it shoudl say something like "on truck" or "ready for delivery"

I hate it whent hat happens. I live behind a hospital, so alot of the time there is a bus or truck or ambulance idling in front of my house. I always think its UPS or fedex and I get all excited, only to have my hopes crushed.

today, A UPS truck came to my house, I'm expecting some parts so I thought it was for me, I get all excited, i'm jumping about, Giving people high fives n all, Turns out it was my brothers computer parts. I cried for a good hour.
