Adventures with DELL, aka Man I'm...

DELL person: You're welcome! Is there anything else I can help you with?
Me: Well, I'm wondering why the package went from Houston to Memphis, and then is coming to Kansas City, because that doesn't seem like a very logical route. However, I don't think you can answer that.
DELL person: I'm sorry but yes, i'm not so sure about that.
Me: Well, I mean, it's not your fault. I hoping to be somewhat comedic. Oh well.
DELL person: Alright! you may recieve the item by monday.
Me: Hurray!
DELL person: Great!
