[QUOTE="Jack4343, post: 595594, member: 7328"] Not really an option in our hub. We deliver to UPS Corporate as well as tons of corporate employees who are well versed (well, somewhat versed) on our commit times and policies. We even reguarly delivered Sat. Early AM's to our former CEO, Mike Eskew. The corporate types won't file for a refund but you can bet they'll tell their corporate buddies what happened. Had that happen to me once. I had a package for a corporate guy that was Signature Required and he had a very tall locked gate leading to his front door. I rang the bell attached to the gate with no answer. Sheeted as NI, left InfoNotice on the gate and continued on. Got a call from my center manager on Monday and asked me what happened? I told him the story and he told me I should've indirected the package to a neighbor. I told him it seemed like he didn't really want to be bothered with his neighbors since he was the only guy on the street with a 10-ft. tall fence surrounding his property and that it was drivers discrection regarding indirect deliveries. I was covered because I followed proper procedures. However, had I attempted that package after the commit time after showing a NI1 earlier, that could've been it for my career at UPS and even though we all have our bad days, I would hate to lose my job over something that I had control over.
