[QUOTE="scratch_king, post: 59467"] Amen to what ok2beclever posted. The way I have understood things over the years is that if we don't deliver the package on the first attempt, we don't make any profit(which is a few pennies on the dollar). Second attempt, we might break even, third attempt and returning the package, we are way in the hole. I can't understand how somebody can pick up the phone, order something, have several days to get a money order because their credit is bad or the shipper doesn't trust them, and I still have to go by and make three attempts. The best thing to do is to have them put it on a charge card, and if it is a high value item requiring a signature, ask them for a daytime address where they will be at. For example, work address or a neighbor who will sign for it. [/QUOTE]
