[QUOTE="ezrider, post: 58598"] Personally, I think one of the best things UPS ever did was putting an end to the ground shipments for guns years ago. If there's one thing I don't miss it's having to put up with those backwoods nickel-shooting trailer trash hicks who after two dozen times couldn't grasp the idea that COD's meant that they had to pay THE ENTIRE AMOUNT [i]before[/i] getting the package rather than half up front and the rest when and if they could peddle the stuff at the next flea-market sale. I can remember one of them who's shaky hold on reality got in the way of common decency when he accused me of JACKING UP THE AMOUNT of the COD in what he concluded was an attempt by me to make some cash on the side at his expense and that I should reconsider or he'd sick his pit bulls on me. Maybe if he had sold a few of the junked cars in his yard for scrap, he might have been able to come up with the $30 and change it would have taken to do the deal. Maybe 1 out of 5 wasn't a total dipsht if a driver was lucky. Most were just not worth the time. Maybe the company thought the same as well back then. [/QUOTE]
