Some days, I really just want to go home. I know it may mean more work for tomorrow, but I just want to go home. Other days, I'll do it with a smile and a spring in my step....

Over, you aren't serious, are you????
If you are, Ok.

Its Friday in the middle of the summer and you're headed north for the weekend. Are you going to have this same attitude when you are told to go back for a 4TH delivery attempt because this woman wants her bra from Victoria's Secret for Saturday?

OOps, my bad. I forgot you're in feeders now and these issues are just a memory to you now.

Why is it after you knock on the door and wait (because you know they are home) ring the bell, knock again, fill out a del notice put it on the door haul the pkg back to the car, get ready to pull away from the curb THEN they open the door and yell "i'am home".
I have pretended not to hear them and drive off.

Probably the only question of merit in this whole thread! Why IS that??? At the same time this happens, you are twenty miles from a restroom!! (and 21 miles from a tree!!).

[quote=browniehound;312053]....that at 1027 and you have 1 air stop left this customer who you gave 1 red and 1 ground envelope to (you're thinking its an easy stop) decides its his day to return 15 toner cartridges?

Happened to me Friday. I go into the building with a letter and come out with two arms-full of cartridges!

Why is it when I leave a notice and I check, circle, and underline the "Must sign in person" area, I go back the next day and the darn thing is signed, with another note that it's "OK to leave package"?

Why do people think I'm the radio traffic reporter and the local weather guy? The weather around here was garbage on Friday (7-14 inches of snow forecast) and after about thirty seven "How are the roads?" I was just about ready to kill. As a matter of fact I told one guy in reply to his request for a road report, " I told myself that I was going to KILL the next person who asked me that!?"

dilligaf · 03-08-2008, 07:53 PM

LOL I had a note a couple of days ago to leave a sig req. On the info notice I take 2 extra seconds to cross out the bottom line so they can't sign it.

Never thought of that. Thanks for the heads up!

I found out that if you always (no matter how bad the roads are) tell those people that the roads are "fine - no problem at all" that after awhile they don't bother to ask. I can't help you tho with the "cold enough or hot enough for you" thing. Ya just have to learn to live with that one

...when you're getting time-studied the elevators are waiting on you?
...the only time something ever leaks at a customer's place, it's bleach?
...pretty girls rarely bend over to pick things up, but 2-ton Sally practically has a stripper pole at her desk?
...customers with bad breath insist on talking a lot?
...they can't EVER fill in the weight field for an OCA?

Why is it that I didn't come up with a neat handle like "filthpig". That describes every driver out there- especially in the summer

On a related note:

Why is it that somebody has to build a house on one of your few country blocks that you designated a "pit stop"? Or when you do get to one of the few remaining "pit stops", some body turns onto that road or the wind is blowing hard in the wrong direction. Then there is always the vehicle that seems to have come out of nowhere.

Why is it that there is always a car parked in front of the house you need to deliver to and have to park in fron of another house an extra 50 feet away so as not to block a neighbors driveway?

Why is it......

If somebody's mailbox gets hit, it gets blamed on the UPS driver??
