I officially hate UPS now. Vent.

I officially <span style='font-family: Arial Black'>hate</span> UPS now.

At the end of Sept. I ordered some items from Collections, Etc.
I thought surely they were coming soon, so I checked the tracking on it this evening. They said it was delivered 3 days ago! Contrary to what they say, we didn't get the package.

I called UPS (twice) and was told it was delivered to "man in yard." They never even came to our door! There's always someone home at that hour. Who the heck is this 'man in yard'!?! No signature, no ID, no "are you Elissa Powers" just "here - here's a package. enjoy." I know they didn't give it to our closest neighbor either - that's my sister's house.

And why would someone take a package that didn't belong to them. It had MY name on it! At times like this I really hate this drugged out neighborhood. I hope it really pissed this person off when they opened it and only found 3 dog beds. Can't buy much crack with that.

After phone calls UPS would NOT take a complaint, they said I had to go back to Collections, Etc. to launch an investigation.

I called Collections, Etc. and they proceeded to tell me that my package had already been delivered. I said "yeah, that's the problem, I didn't get it" and told them all UPS told me. Supposedly they're launching an investigation, which will take 10 business days.

This is complete BS. We'll never see that package(just like previous packages that were supposedly delivered to us by UPS but we never recieved). I thought that since every one of our old neighbors had moved since the last time I had a package stolen, that this time would be different (I had been having stuff sent to work). Boy was I wrong.

I am ticked.

UPS, FedEx, and USPS deliveries in this area are pathetic.

I don't know how many times I've seen the UPS or FedEx guy throw stuff on my porch and run away.

Then you've got the USPS twatwaffles who try to put a large box into a small mailbox. Or leave a 36" cardboard tube sticking out of a box that is only 18" deep...in the rain.

We never have the same mailman, which is part of the problem. I sometimes wonder just what the [censored] is going on in the Coeburn PO. Had my mail held last year when we went on vacation. Come home to find the box stuffed full of mail, including a couple of prescriptions. They excused it by saying that it must have been a carrier who didn't see the hold order. Caught one woman trying to shove a box full of reels into my mailbox instead of walking the 20 yards to my porch.

I don't know how often 'signature required' items have been left on my porch by UPS and FedEx.

I think there's also a shortage of delivery persons that can't tell the difference between "NE" and "SW" at the end of street addresses. That's one problem we get a lot.

One should be able to look at a mailbox that's properly marked and see that it doesn't say "SW" but does say "NE", so by default "SW" mail doesn't go there. "SW" mail is the other end of town.

The worst thing Ive had left on the porch was a guitar Id ordered, with a dog that thankfully decided not to chew through the cardboard box and eat it

Our neighbor brought over a package yesterday that UPS delivered to her instead bringing it here. Happens all the time.

I bought a CD on eBay on Sept. 5th. It was sent out by UPS on Sept. 6th.

I got it this past Thursday.

We use to have a mailman who would walk up and down the street talking on a cell phone the whole time. After he would get through with our street you could stand in the yard and watch as different people all up and down the street would take mail to their neighbors homes. Often even having to cross the street and go up several houses.

It was kind of entertaining but I'm still glad he's no longer working our area.
