I was expecting a package from UPS today, and on the way home I was pretty excited to see if it had arrived. Upon pulling into my driveway, I noticed there was a sticker on the front door.

When I went to look at the sticker, it was a failed delivery notice. It said no one was home, so my package could not be delivered. The only problem with that is Susanne was home with the kids ALL day.

So I called UPS to complain, explained the situation, and was told that someone would call me within the hour.... See More

About 15 minutes later, a UPS truck pulls up to the house. The driver gets out with my delivery. While I am signing for it (I didn't say anything to him), he says "your wife must have been asleep when I came by earlier". I asked him what time he came by, and he replied "about 9:30am". 9:30!!! With 4 kids? Susanne was homeschooling at 9:30. What a bunch of bull.

Then, a few minutes later, while I was unpacking the box, a UPS representative called. She said that the driver would be by soon, at which point I explained he had already delivered the box. Then, the representative told me that the driver had come by earlier and that he had beaten on the door and rang the doorbell repeatedly, but that he doubted anyone heard him over the blaring television.

I just laughed (angrily).

The package was a new TV. Our only TV broke last week.
 
Thats when I would have told her that it is funny because he said they must have been asleep and then I would have told her that the TV was broke and this was the new one. I say all them all on their bullshit. I hate people that don't want to do their job. If you don't want to do it then find a new one or suck it up like the rest of us and do it.
 
i never suggested he didn't come by. i didn't suggest anything. however, i believe he knocked on the glass door (which is locked, so he couldn't knock on the front door proper) and instead of ringing the door bell, he just gave up and left.

believe me, i clued the representative in on the story. I just didn't include my tirade in the "funny story" part.
 
[quote name='Scorch']i think you just c&p'ed this from somewhere.. judging from the "see more" in the first or second paragraph[/QUOTE]

I did. I copied it from my facebook post. Sorry I told my facebook friends before CAG. Will you ever forgive me?

OK. A man walks into a bar. He exclaims "ow, that hurt".
 
Last time I got a package I was ONE foot from my door when they knocked. Yelled out "one second" through my apt door and 20 seconds later heard them leaving. So I opened the door before I was able to fully pant up. Wasn't about to not get my package, shiiiiiiiit.
 
When I ordered my 360 from walmart they put it up against the door. When I opened it the 360 fell off the steps. Thats the worse I have had with UPS.

I am not sure why that made me laugh, but it did.
 
The only thing I find funny about UPS is when I use them and order something that the package comes and its not all jacked up.
