Last week a small Amazon branded Ford Transit style van dropped off a package at the motorhome at 8pm. I had gotten a text that the package would show up around 8pm. I had ordered the item around 10pm the night before. Unreal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a couple amazon distribution centers around us so alot of items are next day. Word is that it is not easy working for Amazon, they have alot of attrition.
