[QUOTE="DeCurtis, post: 4386604, member: 80015"] I would always ask, gesture, or have permission, to sign for my customers in inconvenient situations. The Driver Release was just necessary to thrive in the residential delivery business. You're right, many drivers do not even right the doorbell nor do they try to conceal the package. It's hard to [I]entirely[/I] blame the drivers for this though, especially rookies, when supervision constantly harasses them into feeling like they need to piss in bottles and go the whole day without a break. A normal person knows it doesn't take extra time to ring a doorbell, conceal or lower the profile of a package, put it in the porch or between doors etc., but get a guy all jacked up on stress and these easy tasks become difficult. Tis may seem like the same ol' same ol', but this kind of behavior is going to cost us severely in the long run when Amazon gets going full-steam in the industry. For as hard as UPS can push and harass its employees Amazon can do it harder and worse. Unless something changes I fear fully tying one's fate to UPS is risky. [/QUOTE]
