Yeah actaully people do,
I used to work for fedex and people just dont give a sh!t and in a way resent your package,I used to chunk dell monitor boxes 3 or 4 feet.

I used to work P/T for FedEx at school. We had to pack the trucks. Some of my fellow laborers would smash every box. Or put the lightest boxes on the floor and chuck the heaviest boxes on top of them. It was pretty bad.

Why did you accept them if they look like that?

He rang the doorbell, then ran back to the truck and took off...typical UPS driver behavior

So either report his ass, or chase after him in your car, and beat him over the head with the parcels, leaving him whimpering and gagged in the back of the van.

At least he didn't light them on fire on your porch like my UPS man. 😛


Could you guys see the guy from that one BMW film handing the briefcase to a UPS worker to be shipped?
UPS Guy: What's in the package?
Black Guy: Life... Hope for a nation.
UPS Guy: Would you like ground, 2 day, or overnight?
Black Guy: Just be careful... if the case is damaged... if you fail, then we fail, and tyranny will reign..

Yeah. Man, what if Clive Owen was a UPS driver. That would be badass.
 
Entrusting UPS to deliver your goods is analagous to entrusting the safety of your child to a band of knuckle-dragging oafs.
 
I just order bulk ammo for my .22 and 9mm from Cabelas. I hope for the sake of the UPS employees that they don't kick those around too much.

"... and in local news today, all of the UPS workers in <town> died after shooting themselves in the feet. Literally."
 
My UPS carrier kicks serious ass. I have my own entrance that's not marked by the city with it's own address. The first time she came, she showed up at the front door with my package and my mom's package. I told her that mine go to another entrance and showed her where. From that day on, she's knocked on my door to give me mine and leaves my mom's at the front door if she's not home. We know each other by name and I usually give her a soda for the road when she stops by. 🙂 If she doesn't stop and I'm outside, she waves or honks her horn.

So, your UPS carrier is a she-male?

She hot? if so pics 🙂
 
Lol holy crap, funny how you can see into the first box it got mangled so bad. All the parts for my new comp came Fedex and all the packages were in perfect condition. I find the conversation between djheater and his UPS friend equally hilarious 😛

I missed an "s" and typed "him" instead of "her" once. Big deal. I was carrying on a conversation about someone else on the phone when I was typing that and mixed up the two.

Can only wish... =)

 
I used to work for UPS as a loader. And yes we do KICK the shi+ out of them boxes especially those that have said "Fragile".
 
Literally about half the boxes I get from UPS are damaged. I've even heard the packaged slam down on my porch as he threw it from 6 feet away &amp; 5 feet high. I've only had a handful of things damaged through USPS, and zero through FedEx. I usually tell the companies I order from about my experiences with UPS and request FedEx instead (which some are willing to switch and send through).

Anytime I've ever signed up for the free wall posters in Hot Deals, they're delivered UPS, and 100% of them have been damaged.

And when I spoke to one of the managers at the local UPS hub one time, he was the biggest a-hole I've ever encountered. Any other calls to the 800# have been worthless as well: "I'm sorry sir, you're the only person that has ever mentioned getting damaged packages.", or "I'll check into it.". Both BS naturally.
 
I had my receiver sent thru UPS. The box had a 4"x 4" hole on it. Luckily it was double-boxed. So the receiver was fine.
