[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 640908, member: 4653"] I have many pet peeves, but I try to ignore them and brush off my anger in less than a minute. My thinking is "just forget about it" and go on to the next stop. I must share one scenario that I can't let slide. I deliver to a nursery school that chooses to have their office on the 2nd floor as opposed to ground level. The 'Staples' delivery 'guy' does not bring deliveries upstairs unless the building has an elevator. So he would just "DR" or leave their paper delivery on the first floor or outside on the porch. Someone must have let these fat teachers know that UPS brings packages upstairs. My first 'Staples' delivery I had was for 2 boxes of paper about 40 lbs. each. Keep in mind, I was not to this point asked (it was always small stuff or items they wanted on the first floor) to take it upstairs. This particular day I had 2 boxes of paper. I ring the bell and a fat-:censored: woman in her early 40's opens the door and points towards upstairs. I grabbed one and took it upstairs. She followed me without the other one. I handed her the DIAD at the top of the stairs for her to sign. She it and I left. I'm sorry. There is no way I will let an able-bodied person take advantage of my good nature like that. My gripe and pet peeve is that SHE DIDN'T even ASK ME! All she had to say was "can you please bring both of those upstairs?" and I would have done it without thinking or getting mad. I might have tought to myself what a fat lazy woman she is, but I wouldn't have felt disrespected. I felt disrespected when she just pointed upstairs and didn't take one herself when she easily could have. Her mentality is "its his job to do it, why should I take one?" I'm sorry for the long rant, I got carried away with my own peeve, lol... [/QUOTE]
