Brown for the pile of shiat he has landed himself in

They fix the cable?

Was she hot?

how did he fit in a cash register?

It's better than if he waited in the bathtub, I guess.

Pics or it didn't happen

did she accept the package

I've seen that movie...

It's not his fault the woman hasn't watched enough porn to know what she's supposed to do in that scenario.

Wilsonnnnnn!

/wait
//wrong movie

Basil: I've seen that movie...

Exactly what I was thinking.

"Could you bring your big package into my bedroom"

And I had to complain twice to get my UPS driver to stop leaving my packages at the end of the driveway.

Walter Flowers? What a bastard.

Was there a bad soundtrack playing? If not, she wouldn't have known otherwise.

after she insisted he install the unit it was only polite to watch her polish the pole

FTFA:He was arrested on suspicion of peeping, prowling and trespassing - all misdemeanors.

Perhaps he was just bewitched, bothered and bewildered.

If I'm working in my home office I sometimes can hear the UPS truck drive up. I've gotten to the door and opened it before he gets to the porch enough times that he's stopped slinging the boxes at the door from about 12 feet away. That's nice.

UPS doesn't do that in my area, but it annoys the bejesus out of me when my son or I order something and are told a signature will be required. Then UPS shows up at the very end of the day and hands you the package without getting a signature.

FTFA: "The woman accepted the delivery from him."

Giggity Giggity Goo!

When they need a signature around my area they don't even bring the package to the door, just the "sorry we missed you" note telling me to come to the center at the airport to pick it up. I've been sitting inside and opened the door on the guy leaving the note. Never knocked or rang the bell.

Heh. If it had been me, I wouldn't have called the cops on him. I would have just told him to scram. If he was a hot UPS guy, I probably would have given him a show, and invited him in.

But then, I'm a perverted gay man, so of course my reaction would be different.

I used to have that problem, until I started leaving a note on the door any time I am expecting a delivery that day. It explicitly states that I am home, but need them to knock loudly and wait a few moments for me to answer the door. This gives the deliveryman no excuse to leave their note, as I have stated I am indeed home, and expecting the package. Also, since I work Nights, my wife is always awake and waiting for those deliveries, so if they left a note instead of my delivery, there would be hell to pay at their office the following morning.

Slackfumasta: Was she hot?

Must be consider how long he watched her, now we need pics

I have a similar problem with the USPS. Every damn time a package is sent to me through the mail, I have to go clear across town to the post office to pick it up because the mailman is too damn lazy to get out of his vehicle and knock on the door. Much easier to leave a "sorry we missed you" note in the mailbox instead I guess.

wildcardjack: Basil: I've seen that movie...

If we are discussing modern porn, it would not be a bedroom. It needs to be uncomfortable for the girl, I am thinking "pile driver" position while trying to balance on large outdoor landscaping rocks.

FedsEx guy is worse. He already has the note with my package # on it when he pulls up. Saw him stop when I was upstairs and till I got downstairs and opened the door he was already pulling away. Or the time he stuck concert tickets in the flat envelope under my doormat and I didn't know it was there for 2 weeks worth of phone calls trying to track it down.

I was expecting a package and heard a UPS truck approaching (I live on the 8th floor of an apartment building). I made haste downstairs and surprised him. "How'd you know I was here?" "Heard your truck." If I hadn't been there, my experience tells me that he would not have called up to my apartment, but simply left the note, and left the package at the office. At least they don't leave the packages in the lobby, but it's still annoying to be there and find the note on the front door saying that they tried and couldn't get hold of me. I was there! >:(

See, that right there, I'd be pissed. Inexcusable. I'd have some stern words for that fellow, oh yes...

doglover: Walter Flowers? What a bastard.

Ooohh good one, probably from around Highgarden!

Did he have to have a fantasy of his wife dying of a medically legitimate hiccupping disease first?

Man I hate UPS.

I remember actually catching the bastard one time.

I was at the door, waiting for a delivery. I don't mean in the next room...I happened to be right AT THE DOOR. He comes up and before he can ring or knock (he was going to do neither, you will see), I just open the door. He's standing there with the note already filled out and reaching to hook it on the doorknob.

It took him a few seconds to sputter..."but but but...I knocked and you weren't home so I was leaving the note."

I pointed out that 1) I was there, saw him pull up and 2) if he knocked and thought I wasn't home...HOW COME MY GODDAMN PACKAGE WAS STILL IN THE FARKING TRUCK????

Since then I refuse to do business with anyone who uses UPS.

I supersize with you. This is the same company whose commercials say "29.99 to anywhere in the country (or whatever price/distance) and for just 14.99 extra we'll guarantee delivery for the day we originally stated"

My problem with this should be obvious, WHAT THE FARK WAS THE FIRST 30 BUCKS FOR? Only cable/phone companies should be able to get away with this kind of service.

My UPS guy at home pulls this stunt all the time. I have to have everything sent to work. Bastards.

Surprised to see so much UPS hate. Maybe I'm lucky, nothing but good experiences.
FedEx is a different story. I've tracked packages that got stuck orbiting a sorting center in Milwaukee (500 miles past my house) for three days , only to be told, "Look under your porch." Looked everywhere, no luck. That package was never located, but they did contact the vendor and get a replacement on its way. Replacement arrived on time, and a check later arrived to cover the cost of the last package. I guess that makes up for the hassle.

Why on earth would they do this? Nobody gets paid more money if they don't deliver your package. I don't understand the motivation here.

xant: Why on earth would they do this? Nobody gets paid more money if they don't deliver your package. I don't understand the motivation here.

It's not a business thing, it's a lazy thing. Ie: The guy doesn't have to stop and deliver the package...he just leaves the tag and moves on.

The customer then has to call and reschedule and/or (like in my area) go to a central distribution point and pick it up yourself (which is a PITA...the counter here is open 10 to 4 monday to friday which means you have to take time off of work to go get it).

So the bonus is that the driver doesn't have to deal with it beyond that.

It's not UPS policy...it's just a guy who's lazy and trying to speed through his route to take a longer lunch hour.

My problem is that multiple complaints do nothing with UPS. Drivers in my area are frequently assigned the same route over and over, so a complaint usually results in more screwed up behavior (such as thrown packages, broken packages etc.).

We've learned to avoid UPS if we can.

I worked at ups, at the peak of my career there I was in such good shape that I could toss a 21 inch gateway monitor a good 20 horizontal feet.

Whaaaa? This still doesn't make sense. How is writing and leaving a note less work than handing you a package and asking for your name? Seems about the same to me.

I don't see what's so complicated about it.

Not bothering to find and deliver the package and just leaving a note takes seconds rather than the tediousness of actually finding it, waiting for the door to be answered, getting a signature etc...

If it's a larger package, well there's the

Since (again, in my area, I don't know if it's universal) getting that "sorry we missed you" note means that the customer has to go pick it up themselves, it's not like he has to deliver the thing the next day.

This allows the driver to either a) catch up on being late on his route or b) get ahead on his route to perhaps stop for a long break or something.

I know I'm not the only one this happens to. It happens enough to be annoying...but I'm sure that if the guy went full retard and did this for ALL his packages he'd get fired.

But it does happen enough that UPS has a very bad reputation around here.

Why do they use FedEx for friggin CONCERT TICKETS, anyway? Something tells me it has something to do with the ability to charge an exorbitant shipping fee (assuming it's Ticketmaster.) Tickets would do fine sent USPS first class in most cases.

Well to make you feel worse, he has to actually find it before he even knows that he has to stop at your house.

I think it varies based on where you live. Our UPS/FedEx guys are pretty cool, but when I lived in Cleveland you'd be lucky if they didn't give your parcels a good stomping before slinging them over the fence. You know, just to make sure.

/no, "give your parcels a good stomping" is not a sexual innuendo
//neither is "slinging them over the fence"
