Rose; Read my e-mail on shipping. For many reasons, just like yours, I would have it shipped right to my work. Terry Powers

Well UPS tried to deliver my transplanted 18-cell BN today,. I shipped it Fed-Ex because the Fed-Ex office is about half a mile from my house or less and because it is on my way home. Normally when I have packages from them and am not home (I work ten-hour days) I can call them and have them hold the package and pick it up the next evening. We had to go into tracking and ask that the package be delivered on Friday, January 13, which is the first time we will be home during the work week, but that is not always the case, sometimes we actually do work 50 hours a week. So, I have to wait and wait! Sure wish they shipped the same way they received, they have my card number so it should not have been a problem. I dislike UPS, they have no regard for schedules, are not easy to get to, and this means that more than likely I will spend all day Friday waiting and they will deliver at five in the evening even if they tried to deliver at 9:30 this morning. . In 2003 UPS left my new BN 32 cell on the porch all day, then three weeks later wanted a signature for the upgraded 18-cell, said they would be back on Friday but came on Thursday and left a note that they would ship it back, now talk about a hassle to get that resolved! I really have little that I can say is good about UPS. So, maybe Friday I will be half-way empowered, and next week will have to see about shipping the 32 cell for its empowerment, provided the 18-cell works when it gets home!
