Thats not true for everyone. I have always received my packages on the estimated delivery date. Once in a while I get lucky and get it a day before.

UPS is known for holding packages until the scheduled delivery date if they arrive early. I've personally never had a UPS package come early, whereas with the other shipping carriers, I've gotten ground packages 2-3 days earlier on occassion.

Uhh, right... come back when you know what you're talking about.
 
I think it would have been easier if they just filled the trucks in the morning with all of the packages, instead of driving back and forth from the shipping center and filling them up multiple times a day. It would save a lot of time.

lol. You're kidding right?

 
MySoS, please do yourself a favor, stop getting things sent to you. Obviously the processes of domestic shipping are well above your head.

It would be nice if they could do that but I know for a fact that at least in my area (and I would imagine many other places as well) UPS doesn't even have enough trucks to keep up with the amount of stuff being processed. Just today the UPS shipment where I work came via a Budget Rental truck. They've called ALL of the drivers in and since they have more drivers than trucks they went out and rented extra trucks to make deliveries to places like where I work that have loading docks. That way the regular trucks can make deliveries to places that don't have loading docks.

I was really amazed at how friendly our driver still was today. You'd think a guy that's been working 12-16 hour days trying to get stuff delivered would be crabby as heck, but I guess all of the OT he's making is helping to offset the lack of sleep.

Hang in there man, there's still a chance they'll deliver it, and next time if it's important have it shipped overnight. If it's THAT important the extra cost is worth it.
 
Was this your UPS deliveryperson?

BTW, there are actually 21 pics of her, several of the others are very NSFW, they can be found in google's cache.
 
i always get my packages on time from ups, but lately when i try to track a package on the website, the tracking info isnt updated. ive had packages delivered that still show they were just picked up from the shipper.

Patient is virtue, if all impatient call UPS CSR and ask why.

Common sense is as easy as 1-2-3.
