[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 360640, member: 484"] In a real world, there is a risk to everything we do. We try to minimize the risk as much as possible, but to eliminate the risk is impossible. Then there is the idea of individual responsibility. Both of the shipper and the consignee. You as the consignee know that you have dogs roaming free in the yard. You also order what you wish, knowing that UPS or any other of the delivery companies, will deliver it to your door, and leave it there. You know what you are getting, you ordered it. The company that ships it to you is trying to save you money and time. So they do not place a signature required sticker on the package. Without the sticker, the driver has no knowledge of what he is delivering. None of our business, unless it is something blatantly illegal. We are in the delivery business, not snooping and regulating. So we do our job, and do it well. We can not, nor do we accept any blame for the oversight or stupidity of the customer or the shipper. To totally protect both from any kind of issues that might occur would not only drive us out of business, but hinder the free and rapid movement of goods. There is no way possible to protect each and every customer and their dogs, cats birds fish, kids etc etc etc, from every possible risk of harm. Do things by the book, and let UPS take care of the issues with the customer. d [/QUOTE]
