[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 1174667, member: 4653"] Delivering beat up packages is one of the worst parts of the job. Another bad part is delivering packages that say "team lift" or "Mech. lift"on them. I don't have a team on the package car and I certainly don't have a fork lift. How can UPS accept these packages in good faith from our shippers. Most of these 140 lb. parcels (especially things like shelfs, book cases, tables or entertainment centers)are beat to high hell and are a true embarrassment to show up at a consignee with them. One day I had a 130 lb. door on my truck going to a residence. I could barely move the thing and this guy in his 50's just stood there while I struggled with it for minutes getting it out of the truck in his driveway. That was all fine and dandy until he yelled at me when it fell out of my hands as I was putting it down. "BE careful that's glass!", he barked. Its one tiime I lost my cool and snapped back "It weighs more than me and you're just standing there with your hands in your pocket. Give me a friend---- break! I could have broke my neck" and I took off totally disgusted. [/QUOTE]
