Is that really how it's configured so it's an SQL database that only allows insert or something?
I think it's quill, oak-gall ink, and parchment.

UPS the company right now is like the mailman with too much mail to deliver. The mailman starts chucking bundles of mail into a dumpster while UPS is leaving trailers unloaded. They're not actually dumping them yet though.
"misrouted" and possibly sitting in a trailer means one of the packages that came in and never made it out of the trailer.
All kidding aside this is a serious situation for UPS. They have more package flow than their current system can support. There are only two possible outcomes, delay every package by an ever-increasing time or abandon some of the flow indefinitely in an ever-growing package mountain.
Of course someone would say "well why dont they just expand" but of course when Corona BS is over the demand will only go back to 110% of what the old average was (before rona) not 150% like it is now.
Lol and how often does that happen? Protip: if police are reading your gun serial numbers on the reg, you have much bigger problems than this.
Some of you guys have your foil wrapped too tight.
I would think that officer friendly at the local PD can provide either some means of listing it "found" or otherwise delisting it from "stolen" or whatever status it was.
It will be removed from NCIC once it’s back in my possession, I just have to call the police and let them know it’s home.

Write only database. Good luck removing anything...

Yeah, they all have their bad days. They get a sub on a route, or have to bring in a contractor, or just have the stuff go sideways. They all suck.Glad this ended well. Sadly every shipping company sucks.

There was a tale that Spag kept his inventory in hundreds of tractor trailersExactly, except it's not one trailer, it's hundreds. Expect to see UPS leasing trailers soon.

because it wasn't taxable or the bills weren't payable until it was "delivered".
I hedged, because the story I heard was "taxes",Massachusetts assesses an annual excise tax on C Corporations that includes a 2.6% tax on tangible assets. Park a million dollars worth of inbound inventory in trailers so it is not yet received at the end of the tax year and you just saved $26,000. Not chump change.
I think vendors would not be fooled by the trailer trick but you never know.
LEXINGTON, S.C. – A gun theft ring at a midlands UPS hub was busted last week by Lexington County deputies. The guns were stolen from incoming packages at the shipping company’s hub in West Columbia.
Byron Burke, 19, Jalen Green, 19, Dishon Kinney, 18, Kenyon Peters, 18, and Tre’von Williams, 19, face charges of breach of trust. Kinney and Peters are also charged with criminal conspiracy.
UPS’s security team notified the Lexington County Sheriff’s Department that guns were being stolen from incoming trucks. LCSD says Kinney and Peters devised the plan and that all five men sold the guns or gave them away while on company time.
maybe these guys have my lost powder and primers too..
We already lease trailers. It's an utter shit show at UPS right now. It was getting better right before July first. I was on vacation the last three weeks and came back to a total mess.
That's a TP-60. The package car brings that to the first couple of bulk stops at the beginning of the day. Once empty the driver parks it and leaves it till the end of day. I never pulled one but I think they may use them for pick ups also. We've been using those for years.
Did they expect they'd get away with it? Knuckleheads...
There's a distribution center about 12 miles from me, so I regularly see little brown trailers behind the BBT.That's a TP-60.
