You don't really have any choice---if the e-release is valid you have to leave the package.

One instance, I saw a FedEx package at an old address for a customer. I knew where he moved to and when I got to his house I told him about the package sitting there. I by no means brought it to him. He appreciated it though.

He would have appreciated it even more had you done the right thing and.handed the package to him.

You mean take the FedEx package from that stop and take it to his new house?! I don't think so.

If I were 100% certain that the consignee had moved AND had a delivery for him at his new address you're damn right I would bring the package to him.

At the very least I would write the new address on the pkg and either give it to a courier or put it in a drop box.

Exactly. FedEx left it there at the address on the package. You pick it up and take it? That's stealing.

Go for it. Not me.

Feeders was the right move for you.

You say that like it's going to hurt my feelings.

One thing my dad always said growing up was "If everyone else has one take on something and you're the ONLY one with your viewpoint, you're most likely the one who's wrong, not all of them". That holds true here

Next time the guy asks, tell him you've been told helping him out could get you fired. It's not worth taking a chance of losing your job by doing someone else's.

He should be able to understand.

I do have a choice and yours isn't one of them!

Most ill ever do is take a competitors pkg from my drop box and put it in theirs if it's next to it.

You're a complete tool.

You're a complete tool.

...which would concern me if your opinion meant anything at all to me...

 

[gbpackman29]

You tell this guy he is doing the wrong thing delivering a FedEx parcel, then explain in multiple posts how you do the same exact thing. Your mind is twisted. You are doing the SAME THING.

gbpackman29, are you new to the site?

I have viewed it casually over the last year or so, what's your point?

 

[JackStraw]

E-releases are every bit as good as an actual signature.

Then why does it say on the note that it is still up to driver discretion? Tell me what your center manager will tell you if that pkg gets pinched? I'll answer for you. "Why did you leave it in an unsafe place?"

You'll probably disagree with all of upstates posts.
