Paying for packages

[oldngray]

Like a drug deal.
Hair stores always rcv the majority of CODs. They also get the most deliveries everyday. Might be drugs in them boxes.

Shoe stores are used to launder drug money

One time UPS tried to deduct money from my check without telling me. Luckily I caught it. The package was a center write off that the preload damaged and never even left the building.

That’s a lawsuit my man....

Ok. But that's a different story.

Read the contract. Quit making stuff up dumb

I don't understand why he would do something so stewwwpid!

He's not so bright. Lol

 

[oldngray]

Ok. But that's a different story.

A customer had a bunch of CODs from a couple of different shippers and accounting sent the money to the wrong shipper. They didn't want to admit they screwed up.

In my center we had a driver DR a high value signature required which vanished so they made him go on a payment plan to repay it. When I was a brand new cover driver I left a few box of books at the front door of a house (not out of the weather) and it rained that night/the guy didn't use that door so didn't know it was there. They tried to get me to pay for the claim they paid out. I started using DR bags when rain is likely after that and looking around for porches, etc.

Only time I've had a COD was a hair extension salon in the tiest part of town. 10 oversized boxes, double parked on a busy street unloaded them all and started to bring into the salon and was asked if I could wait 15 minutes for a check. Said no and said I would have to come back tomorrow. Thankfully I was on a different route the next day

Lol how did you clock out without the money?

I remember having to pay something like 60 bucks for a cash only COD I took a check for in my rookie years. They told me if the check bounced it was coming out of my paycheck. It did. They just flat out deducted it from my paycheck. It's not like I had any choice in the matter. You guys don't seem to handle many COD's now. It was common on my route to have 15 or 20 a day. I had 2 gun shops who between them would have a dozen or so.

In all honesty has anyone ever had to pay for a customers package. Like a payroll deduction.

What did you sign off?

 

[Wally]

I have known people that have had to pay for COD’s because they took a regular check instead of a money order.Of course the checks were bad.

Doesn't anybody press charges? Folk go to jail for that.

Counting the cash at the end of the day was a real pain. And if you were short it came out of your own pocket.

For a while there was a guy in the neighborhood passing some funny money and I ended up with some in my turn in. Didn't cost me anything but I got to have a nice little talk with some Feds. They were even nice enough to leave me their card.

Those main street type routes with hair salons, record shops, and clothing stores would have you walking around with $1000's in cash some days.

I didn't have a safe in my truck but a couple of routes did.

We used to buy a money order from a bank which was a pain because you had to subtract the voucher.

With my gun shops being strictly cash only there were many days I would be carrying over $10,000.

It’s called they don’t get the packages till the next day. NR1.

Oh ok. He didn't say he took back the boxes. I thought he left them. A lot of guys will leave the pkgs and come back later to get the check.

I was at a mom and pop business that I had been delivering to for 15 years.the husband showed me a check that they had received from UPS that I had collected a couple of weeks before from them to a vendor for $5,000. They had received it in the usps mail from UPS with no explanation. I told them to hold on to it they might have a freebie. Sure enough a couple of weeks later I got called in for a check I had “failed to collect”. Tightest ship in the shipping business.
