UPS seems to have been good for me, but fedex is another story.

they delivered my package to a chinese restaurant because they had packages that day and my last name is chinese and it was on the same shelf on the truck... stupid noobs.

Obviously they need to ship it to Albany, NY

We have daily UPS pickup at my store.

The other day the UPS guy shows up at noon, as usual, and drops off a few boxes for us. Later that afternoon he came around for his pickup service and PICKED UP THE BOXES HE DROPPED OFF THAT MORNING.


We had to call the national UPS line to get through to the UPS office (that is maybe 1/4 mile up the road from us) to let them know what happened.

Hudson Valley Mall FTW! :beer::)

Well, I just moved up here in June. I got a job in Kingston and with things being so expensive in Mississippi, the job up here offered better pay and the cost of living isn't too bad. I had a friend in Stone Ridge, so he and I got an apartment up here.

KVM's pretty nice. They need a stand alone Taco Bell here though. The one in the mall is packed.

I went to Woodstock for the first time a couple of weeks ago. It's... vibrant. :beer:

So I called UPS today to find out where my package is. 2 minutes after I call them and they start checking, it shows up at my door... :confused:

Well, I suppose that all is well that ends well. I don't think I'm done with UPS, but I'd still like to know what the hell the driver was thinking.

I'll make sure my wife gives all your packages an extra kick as they come through. :evil:

Yay, they're doing it again! I sent my Conroe motherboard back to Newegg since it was broken. They shipped it through UPS....

Looks like I'm in for another fight.

Maybe a local UPS worker hates you??

I hope not. I was really nice last time. Maybe they forgot about me... :D
