[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1050503, member: 14668"] In 25 years there have been exactly 2 instances in which I signed for a customers package. In both instances, I signed my own name and clarified my signature with my last name. Once I had a delivery for a church. Normally, the only one in there during that time of day was the secretary. Her car was there and both the front door and the door to her little office were unlocked, but I couldnt find her. Thinking she might be in copy room, I started walking back there hollering "UPS" to avoid scaring her. As I passed by the door to the ladies restroom, I heard her having an [I]extremely[/I] loud and wet and painful sounding bowel movement. I'm pretty sure she heard me holler "UPS", so she almost certainly would have had to be aware that I heard the noises she was making in the bathroom. In order to spare us both a huge amount of embarassment I just went back to her office, signed for her package, and left. Not saying it was the right choice, but it was what it was. The second occasion was for a disabled (quadrapalegic) customer whose caretaker had run down to the local store and left him sitting in his wheelchair on the porch. The guy was paralyzed and incapable of signing the DIAD, so I signed my own name and typed "disabled customer" in the remarks column. To do anything else under the circumstances would have been cruel and heartless on my part. [/QUOTE]
