FYI FedEx is worse than the USPS now. Sell your stock.
You should be allowed to place wagers on whether your package will get where it is going within a particular number of days/hours. It would allow people to help cover the cost of shipping by betting the over on a consistent basis.
 
The woo should be executed or at least reserved for women and children only.

We live outside of Memphis in Arkansas. We had a family member in Knoxville send us a package via FedEx from Knoxville a few years ago. It went from Knoxville to WV to Dayton, OH then to Memphis. It was in Memphis for 7 days and finally delivered by USPS. FedEx sent it from Memphis to my local post office on a Friday and it sit there over the weekend until delivered to us. Total of about 15 days in route. Cost my family member about $15 for small box ground shipped
im sure USPS is involved un this chicanery.
 
Have a fedex package being shipped from Columbia, SC. Went to Concord, Kernersville, and then to OH. Where it will be shipped to Jocy TN later today. 🤦🏼‍♂️
I've had packages ship from Nashville to Louisville or Indianapolis to Nashville then to me. Not sure of the logic of that. Happened more than once.

I always remember this from Before Sunrise.

Ethan Hawke's character says lottery winners tend to less happy than average folks and the cut-off before diminishing returns was around 70k/yr (Maybe individual and not family? Not sure). That was also the 90s, so I'm sure it's closer to your graph around 250k now for a family/2 earners.

Prior point remains - a lack of money is a part of unhappiness - but loads of it won't do squat.


Same in the workplace. More money doesn't make employees happier. But being paid less than market/inequitably will have a negative impact where people feel they're getting screwed over.
