Re: FedEx not what it's cracked up to be
We had a problem as well, actually--we received an email around 6pm yesterday to the effect that the crated robot was still sitting at shipping and receiving at the high school. There had been some confusion and FedEx hadn't picked it up. If I may suggest: teams need to make sure they specify a pickup time and location and have it all in writing. We ended up lugging our 300-400 pound crate into a trailer and taking it to the FedEx post at the Detroit airport. NOT a good way to spend ship date...
