It's true - and it's high level top secret training, as well. I mean come on, who would ever think to look under my doormat for the package? My doormat always lays over to the side like that with a big box under it.

There is a sign on my front door instructing any package deliverers to drop off the package between the glass storm door and my front door.
Tricky thing is there are two doors on the side of the house. They leave stuff by the back door, despite giving them notice to leave them between the doors. Assheads at FedEx left video games in a pile of snow next to the door in December for fuck's sake.

Looks good to go. Lot's of packages getting stolen off doorsteps are crimes of opportunity. Doing this decreases many people from ever seeing it.

Your package wasn't thrown on your porch from the truck, so no big deal.

My personal favorite FedEx moment was when we had a $40,000 camera delivered to the office. The FedEx guy chucked the box about 15 feet across the room. It was marked with five "FRAGILE!" stickers.
I said "Hey, what the fuck?" He replied, "You think they don't treat them worse than that at the depot?" Stay classy, FedEx. |

At least my mat is big enough to fit over the package but still, who really thinks that would fool anyone? |

A couple of years back Fed Ex dropped a box of guns from CZ meant for Impact Guns on my doorstep without a signature. There were CZ-75s, 97s, 427s and a bunch of accessories.
Fed Ex were complete dicks and I had to be the one to run out to their depot and get a local manager to accept the package (after confirming the contents against the packing list). It happened again a couple of weeks later but luckily my wife caught them trying to drop it off and refused to sign. Turns out my customer number at CZ was similar enough to that of Impact Guns' that a dyslexic shipping clerk was entering me for them. CZ sent me a cap and a couple of other goodies!

It was bolted to its own custom shipping pallet and was completely enclosed by 5/8 thick plywood with steel angle on all the corners. Probably weighed 2,000 pounds, 3ft x 3ft x 8ft. Caution and warning stickers plastered all over it. It arrived with the entire top cover and sides missing, splintered wood all around, and a 4" hole punched through the side of the engine. And NOBODY at FedEx has the slightest idea how it happened. And they have called in the lawyers to fight the claim. UPS was just as bad. |

Your product/package may/maynot be damaged due to forklift training/certification day/week. We FedEx/Federal express may/may not be held liable/not liable for your damaged/undamaged goods.

Chances are the more times "fragile" is visible on a box, the more it has been abused. It's horrible, but it's true. Too many people have little to no respect for other peoples' property. |

I've had crates of ammo dropped off and FedEx was nice enough to "try" and cover them up with trashcan lids. Can't complain.

I had some A-arms and axle delivered though fed ex once, well one arm was taped to the box, the axle was punched through the other end, and the box placed in a snowbank. This a 6 or 7 years ago. I will say the boxes are less beat up, but they still suck at timelines. |

I remember getting a box that was so mangled I thought I had just received a super-sized boomerang... It turned out to be my new lightweight profile AR15 barrel... And don't ask me how the fuck it happened, but the barrel was fine and shoots great!
