What's up with delivery ppl these days?

I was waiting for an order to arrive this week from Summit racing . I was following tracking, when info stated package was delivered by front door. Moved my ass from couch to front door and no package. Proceeded to call fedex and was told package went to wrong address, so I am waiting for them to track package and return. Yesterday, I'm in the garage with the door opened and the mailman pulls up with a small box and a handful of mail. I decided to save him a few steps so I walked over and grabbed the pile. As I'm looking at the letters, I noticed none of the letters are addressed to us. It was numerous wrong addresses not just one. We also had a letter from a couple days before which was delivered to wrong address, which I grabbed and proceeded to chase after mailman. As I'm heading out the front door, I see him coming back. He realized he messed up and took the pile back and then he had to back track the neighborhood to correct mistakes. WTF

I just hate the delivery guys who scan stuff delivered even before they get to the neighborhood. Numerous times I check tracking and see a package has been delivered. I go there and look, and find nothing. Then like 20-30 minutes later, the delivery truck shows up. So annoying.

They liked to throw the boxes at the front door at my old house, now they throw them up onto the porch over the railing at my new house. UPS/Fed-ex that is as I have a community mailbox and pickup USPS stuff from the post office as they will not fit in the box.

I almost had to drive onto the tarmac at Barcelona airport a few years back due to DHL's jackassery.

After that FedEx and UPS are tolerable. Not great by any means. But tolerable. DHL? Forget it.

I like my UPS and Fedex guys, no complaints about them.

The USPS though, **** those clowns.

UPS has been good for me. FedEx still kinda sucks given their inability to allow for delivery with no one present. USPS is def a **** show.

Amazon same-day delivery folks are getting pretty bad. These are the folks that probably get a few bucks to deliver a package on their way home. I had one roll through my little driveway circle, not even stop and toss the package on my doorstep. It was a good toss though.

I've had UPS packages magically appear on weekends when I thought the company was closed. Pretty happy with the folks in brown.

My Summit racing box magically appeared today. I'm just glad it wasn't anything I really needed or was too costly, that would have kept me up at night.

I get plenty of my neighbors' mail, and unfortunately I'm sure the reverse is true. As far as packages go, I'm a big fan of Amazon's photographic confirmation so far.

I'm kinda surprised you are not a member of the Amazon key program, or even Amazon trunk, lol

I only have had a problem with the UPS guy at my new house. He literally hid a box behind a tree next to my driveway instead of coming up (not a flaglot).

I didn't see it until I went back down the driveway and my headlights hit it the next morning. I had a chat with our work UPS guy who comes out of the same distribution hub and he passed it onto my local guy. Never had a problem again.

Always pays to be friendly with your vendors
