[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 903715, member: 484"] Where to start, so many people reading things into the post that just are not there. That one is really simple. The UPS man/woman, like every other UPSER is in a hurry. Most times, when there are no customers, they go out to meet the UPS man at the truck. BUt other times, they have Customers, who take priority over the driver getting a signature. So to keep the driver from having to wait, I signed a delivery release so they can leave it behind the counter and go. Cool, but you would not leave it [SIZE=2][B]AT[SIZE=1] [/SIZE][/B][SIZE=1]the gate, right? Interesting, from what you just posted, it has not changed. All the employees since I began at UPS have always been under tremendous pressure to get the job done and get home to their families. So what has changed, really? As for the hours the employees work, business is what it is. We provide a service. When we are no longer available when they need us, then we loose business. Its that simple. BTW, that is also why I posted. Also, as a former driver, I hate calling in complaints, because when you do, they want names of who. Not something I really like. I would rather inform them they have a problem, and let them investigate. Just like with DR to a business. 72, I guess you jumped into the conversation without reading it. It is a business. THe area is mixed, some residential, more business, but a lot of empty space. I happen to be the only address on the street as well. The street or location has nothing to do with your claim, UPS policy states that if it stands alone from the house, or is open to the public, or has regular hours that are posted, it is a business. All a business needs to do is meet one of the above to be classified as a business. And I meet all three. And that does still not address the front door left at location, when it was not left at the front door. Any more questions? Sober, At least you get it. I see so many of our posters here have yielded their integrity and blame it on the "New" UPS and the unreal expectations that are demanded. Those have always been there. But you allways do your job, and keep your integrity intact. But so many sell out so easily........and most, as in this case, is because the driver is not willing to do what he claims via the diad. As in this case, leaving it several hundred yards from where he claimed to have left it. I will take the next step that so many have posted, and call in a formal complaint. Hate to do it, but ......
