We don't have it on the back either. Just the ups emblem. Of my truck anyways.

Right on top of UPS.COM webpage is a "contact UPS" button

That's where 99% of the people get the number

On Friday I parked parallel to a driveway to eliminate a double park for a resi stop that took 70 secs or so. Upon walking back this dude was taking pictures of my truck and filming me and whatnot. He was cussing me out for blocking his driveway for 20 seconds. All I replied with was "have a nice day" repeatedly. Then dude told me to hurry the up. And then I kinda lost it and told him he can't talk to me like, your not my boss. Meanwhile he was smiling and recording me. Said he was gonna post it to ups website. Long story sorry guys but I'm kinda stressed that this A-hole could get me fired. Any chance of that happening?

You handled that pretty well. I've been in similar situations. The best thing to do is maintain professionalism, smile and wish them a good day.

Nah, you're not a puss. Your options are limited in the city. Call the police? Snitches get stitches here.

Who manufactures that model P700 btw?

I believe that is a work horse. Not sure . Mine is a freightliner p7. A tank. Pretty good in the snow. Mechanic says it is about 500 lbs heavier than the work horse

Diad training says if you are ever filmed, to report it to management.

Anyone remember the "Madera Guy" ?

Back in the day, when I was delivering the urban jungle. I stopped for a delivery at a house and their neighbor's driveway was right along side the customer's driveway. The big neighbor came out and told me not to block his driveway. I told him I'll be just a minute. As I take a step toward the delivery spot, he steps in front of me and says "Maybe you didn't understand, I told you to get that friend----ng truck out of my driveway". As a noob fearing for my undamaged pretty face, I turned back to the car and moved it 2 houses down. Never saw him again. Never called the cops or told my boss.

Moral of the story: Intimidation works...............plus Heff's a puss

I've had people honk at me because I'm blocking an alley they're trying to take a shortcut through. I don't know if they actually think I'm going to stop what I'm doing and drive back around the block for them or what.

Ive told them I was broke down. Then I wait for them to back up and start going again.

I ask them if they expect the beer truck to back up for them. When they say no, I say, "why would you expect me to?"

 

[Indecisi0n]

Stop fast and laugh when they get stuck behind you.

Ups policy states that we reply"you do not have my permission or ups permission to videotape me. Please stop". I follow that up with have a nice day and leave.

As far as blocking someone in, I always feel bad. It's none of my business where they have to go when, or why. I just ask them if they'd be so kind as to give me a minute. Otherwise I stop what I'm doing to unblock them

It would have been nice if a couple of people just gave you a push out.

In my neck of the woods there would have been a gang of people pushing on the back bumper. Or...since every 5th vehicle around here is a beat up 4x4 farm truck....I would have gotten pushed or pulled out using my tow strap.

You cant stop someone from filming you. All you can do is be as boring and polite as possible. They are trying to provoke a response, so don't give them one. Smile and say "have a nice day" and carry on with your business. Repeat as often as necessary. This will prove to me more frustrating for them than it is for you.
