Im in the greatest and freest country with no problems at all in the world, America, and our local fedex called me and figured out where I was since i basically have an unfindable property in another unfindable property which is indistinguishable from 7 other neighboring properties. My guess is they did something like this map because now they arrive without issue. Was a pleasant surprise since i thought they would not care and not deliver

Damn, dude. Our USPS carrier can't even bother to put things in our mailbox or pick up the outgoing mail that's been sitting there for half a week.
