UPS sucks.. rat bastards.. they usually show up here around 6 pm.. well today they showed up at 3:30... sig required on my frame,no one home. This order has been the most problematic ever. Starting with the frame not getting to the shop on time(1-2 days late). The shop almost screwing up the shipping address( i caught the problem just as the guy was scanning the box onto the truck, were talking almost fubar'ed by a cunt hair) Finally its on its way, supposed to be here on time for the weekend. UPS shows up gawd damn early this ONE time. I even left work 2 hrs early (paid hourly) to be home around the time UPS shows up here. Another weekend bikeless. Had the frame got to the shop on time it would be here and I'd be a happy camper. Im going to go get drunk now. /rantoff :nopity:

Or you could quit whining, as it was your own damned fault. Go to the hub and pick up the stupid frame instead of bitching. Or send it non-sig required next time.

They'll call you back, inform you that you have until 9:30 to pick it up, and you'll whine again because your soup was cold because you had to go pick it up...right?



UPS doesn't have a ground time commitment, just a business day. :nopity:

It's not UPS. They don't require a sig. Be pissed at the shipper.

Call UPS and have them "will-call" your package; that way you can just pick it up at the UPS customer counter. It's hard to tell exactly when UPS will be at your house; sometimes drivers have better days than others...

That's not exactly true. If the area is considered a "high claims" area, then a signature would be required. UPS will only "driver release" packages to certain areas. However, the driver should have made in "indirect" (leaving it with a neighbor) attempt on the package. Believe it or not, UPS drivers tend to get a trouble if they bring packages back with them at the end of the day.

USPS left my DOC sitting at the front door.

The post office is different, they don't care if they lose money. Not to mention that UPS will leave a package at the front door, if it is a safe area.

The post office left a box of blank checks at my door, and I live in a townhouse...

You're wrong, they do what they are told. Why would they try a neighbors house, maybe the neighbors don't like or know you. So why would they take a package for you unless it's specified?
