I have a small package that I ordered from someone near Sacramento California. In the tracking, it said Friday “departed USPS regional origin facility Sacramento”, which is expected. I checked it a few minutes ago, and it says “departed USPS facility Harrisburg PA”. I live near Omaha.

It's USPS and they're basically morons when it comes to shipping packages. On three different occasions I have shipped from my local post office to Knoxville, Des Moines, and Ottumwa. Should be there in a couple days, right? They all took detours to Honolulu, Los Angeles, and Harrisburg PA.

I have worked in small package transportation for internet companies for over 10 years and general transportation for about 15. Tracking numbers are recycled. In this case, it was either using the shipping location of the last time the tracking number was used or the shipper uploaded the shipping manifest with the wrong shipping location.
