Sounds about right. My brother had more than one package with expensive electronic gear inside left at his door. He always had the stuff shipped with signature required, the driver would sign "door" on the signature line and leave it there. Then he started having it shipped next day air so the driver wouldn't do that. The driver bitched at him the whole time he was there about how next day air deliveries really screwed up his route.

Bastards insisted they made a delivery to my front door. I was 8 feet away at my computer at the time. No way that truck was even on my street. You can't miss the sound it makes.
After that, they made me sign for every delivery for a year, until I called them and convinced them to stop that crap. |

That's priceless!
Although I gotta say that this is the kind of shit that Fedex does around here. Those bastards routinely log 2 delivery attempts without even coming to the house or they claim no delivery possible due to weather. Yes, I've been here in the shop during those particular" delivery attempts. Never did see a white van pull up. And the weather delays? How come UPS or the USPS makes it no problem? Are Fedex drivers pussies? It's gotten to the point where I'll not complete an order if they'll be shipping it via Fedex. Fuck those guys! For us, UPS is great! We have a damned good driver who'll drive through anything to get here. It probably helps that he approves of my purchases and gets to see my range when he visits. Oh yeah, we treat him right come Christmas time. |
