I&#8217;ve been calling every day.<\/p>\n<p><!--more The details.-->On Friday, they packed and loaded all my stuff.  At that point, they gave me a delivery window of between the 1st and the 6th for delivery in Rhode Island, with a guess that it would be on the 1st.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday, they had not yet generated a weight for purposes of pricing.  Stuff was being unloaded into the Saint Paul warehouse.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, I was told that my stuff weighs 10,560 pounds.  Holy <b>crap!<\/b>  This is 2,500 pounds over the weight on which our price estimate was made.  Stuff was still in the warehouse.<\/p>\n<p>Today, I learned that they have not yet <b>scheduled<\/b> a pickup by a long haul truck.  Stuff is still in the warehouse.  I also don&#8217;t have any idea what my charge will be to take delivery.  I&#8217;ve been assured that there&#8217;s no chance that my stuff will arrive tomorrow (the 1st).  The woman at the warehouse assured me that we would probably have a schedule &#8220;this week&#8221; and then probably get it out of the warehouse and on a truck &#8220;next week.&#8221;  After that, things get vague.<\/p>\n<p>Should I continue to roll with it, or should I start to bust heads?  I want to be mellow and friendly as long as possible, but this is starting to stink of a crap-fest to me.<\/p>\n<p style=\"border: 1px solid black; padding: 3px;\"><strong>Originally published at <a href=\"http:\/\/chris.dwan.org\/?p=265\">chris.dwan.org<\/a>.
