From the promised LAND
Bottom line: UPS wants people to goto UPS stores. If there's a reason we can't service a customer, that's whom we defer customers to. Either way UPS takes the money, so enough with the off basis and unknowledgable commentary about "help out the competition"
what the heck does my or anyones knowledge of plant life have to do with anything?
Dear I do
You were the one that brought up the plant life expectancy within our UPS system. And that was my point. You made a statement that you had absolutly no basis in fact to make. And that goes for the above post as well.
If indeed it is UPS's Bottom line to send all the customers to the UPS store, then why do you have a job? And why would you send customers that have driven over two hours to ship a package from the center, to a UPS store?
Your attitude makes the point. Plants that are shipped via UPS every day are not hazmat. No one is asking you to ship a Hazmat. Only some lousy plants, plants that we take from other shippers all the time. Funny how she to had your attitude until the call came down the line.
So keep the attitude. Send all the customers out of their way to the UPS store because you dont want to help them out. Sure, the job you cost us wont be yours.........yet.
As for quality control, the shipper(brett) ships via the airlines to me all the time. He would have sent the plants via the airlines (it would have been much cheaper) but he is only allowed four boxes a day into our airport, so the fish went airlines, and the plants went UPS.
I figure if Brett can conform to the strict regulations governing our airlines, I would think that he would vastly surpass the quality control for UPS.
