Telepresence Robot Crosses Atlantic *Six* Times Trying to Get Home
- 11thEarlOfMar 11y agoThe package is a QB robot from Anybots. It's on it's way home from London to San Jose (we thought) for an upgrade. Over the last 14 days, FedEx has literally flown it across the Atlantic 6 times. The sender inadvertently reversed the Sender and Receiver on the waybill, and was advised to 'just put arrows between the two, it happens all the time'. It got as far as San Jose distribution, who apparently missed the arrows and shipped it right back to London. Since then, and in spite of literally dozens of phone calls, this guy has been racking up frequent flyer miles.
