[QUOTE="gman042, post: 1098980, member: 36560"] Had a situation recently where the consignee had contacted UPS management about an inbound package. Told management that it would be fine if DR'd thru the side door of the garage. There was a copy of the email left in the slot with my DIAD informing me of the procedure. Fine. Well....the day of the scheduled delivery I arrived at the address about 4:30 pm. I notice immediately that the side door of the garage is buried in snow that came off the roof. Same issue with the front porch as you couldn't get within 30 feet of the steps. The garage door begins to come up so I assume he was coming out to meet me. Apparently it is the only way to access the house. Guy comes out and says(with some disdain I might add), "Better late than never!" They say hind-sight is 20/20. If I had to do it all over again I would have asked for the package back and then told him that I would be back the next day. Perhaps then he would appreciate the delivery a little more. Instead, I just smiled and handed the package over to him. I treat busy office people the same way. I will stand there in long suffering silence until I am noticed. I should learn to be more assertive. [/QUOTE]
