FedEx: When Your Whole Future Depends On It!

FedEx forgot to stop by UC Berkeley to pickup a package. Those students will not qualify for a Fullbright scholarship as they missed the shipping deadline.

So when it aboslutely, postively has to get there on time, use....

Actually I was taught, in junior high school that it's ok to get things done BEFORE the deadline!

Actually, if I read it right, the University waited till the last day to mail in the applications. I bet that all of those students actually got applications in on or even ahead of time and UC or Fedex actually screwed those students. All UC had to do was bring the applications to the post office.

Then again, that's pretty standard for a school beauracracy (sp?). I remember the nightmares of trying to deal with the school I went to...

That apparent earthquake was actually the footsteps of lawyers rushing to "help" the situation.
