So the package is sent 3 day express across the nation and arrives around my area within 1 day. We all know that they never like to deliver early and will refuse warehouse pickup, so they just sit on your package for a few days.

But what the heck are they doing here?

OAKLAND, CA, US
04/26/2006 8:30 A.M. ARRIVAL SCAN
04/26/2006 7:45 A.M. DEPARTURE SCAN

OAKLAND, CA, US
04/25/2006 8:34 P.M. ARRIVAL SCAN

So is this what they do when they sit on your package? Unless there's more than 1 distro center in Oakland, did they just send the package back to themselves just for kicks?

I've picked up stuff plenty of times.

Yeah, but on packages that arrived earlier than scheduled delivery?

Packages arrive early during the following conditions:

Missed sorts - and they inadvertently upgrade your package
Christmastime - where they upgrade a lot of stuff before peak day to load balance
