^ ^ ^ LOL!! :D

Yeah we have a driveway that comes in on the main road side and goes out to an access driveway, if it where in the city they'd call it an alley. It's not a main entrance. Anyway we were expecting a package, and just by chance my wife came in the side-road and as she turns down the driveway what does she see?

A yellow slip of paper, poked onto a branch, saying "Sorry we missed you, pick up the package at the UPS office."

It wasn't taped or tacked to the tree, they stuck a hole in it and hung it on one of the branches! LOL!

UPS Sucks, here's what brown did for me.
 
DOWN WITH BROWN
DOWN WITH BROWN

C'mon people chant w/ me
I've never gotten scummed by the men in brown but usually use fedex...unless it's some backwoods place that thinks Fed Ex is an ex wife working for uncle sam
 
Yeah Ups sucks. They tend to be rough with packages and have ya on a wild goose chase to find your package. When I got my savage, I was able to track it online and was wondering why after 3 days of it saying it arrived I still didnt have it. So I called and 2 days later they called back and told me that the driver put it in the dog house. So I went outside, and sure poop, it was in the doghouse. A note would have been nice or even a clue to know where it is. When I ship out stuff I always use Fed Ex or even Usps. It seems more safer and reliable.

they stuck it in the dog house,wtf,they must have expected you to find it when you get kicked outta the house.
 
I remember when you use to actually have to sign for a UPS package. I have had them leave stuff at my door in the rain and never even knock on the door, I know since I was home. I also had a package stolen, I think but no matter what I never got it, because when I lived in an apt in NC they left it outside my door...IN AN APARTMENT COMPLEX!!! WTF is wrong with their drivers, they have to be complete morons! This is what brown has done for me.

DOWN WITH BROWN!

DOWN WITH BROWN!

DOWN WITH BROWN!
 
I don't know how bad they are,I've never had problems"Yet" but i usually use usps but if somebody offers to ship a package ups or usps i prefer it for there tracking system.
 
The other times I've gotten packages through them, the dude will just leave it on the porch. He wont knock or anything. I can be sitting in the living room and hell just leave it there without a knock. Its sucks but I'm just glad I get them..lol
 
I hate to say it, but they've always done me right...Out here in the sticks is different though I'm sure. When you see the drivers everyday, they're almost like friends. And they are scared to f**k with ya because they know ya know where they live...

I'll still chant with ya, though...

Down with brown
Down with brown
Down with brown

It IS fun to say!!!
 
I never could figuire out why people use UPS, Fed-ex & DHL when our prices(USPS) are cheaper! Besides, it's your own country company.

Its due to the fact that most of us have fat lazy contracted mail carries that won't so much get out of there car and will just roll up and honk once then leave.
I can't even count the times I have been in my back yard and did not here them.Then two day later they put a damm notice in your box saying that if you don't pick up the package it will be sent back WTF is that all about.
I have had to leave work early on a few days just so I could get to the post office to pick my poop up..
 
I used to drive for UPS in my younger days. In general, I always tried to make sure someone heard me banging on the door. If I could find a place to drop it, I did BUT I always made sure to stick the notice of where it was ... but that was only for those that got a lot of deliveries. Otherwise, I just left a notice saying I'd be back the next day. By the time I got back, the release was signed and thye gave instructions on where to hide it.

For the real bastards that never tip and always had a bad attitude, well ... I'd be writting the notice on my way up to the door. I'd bang a couple of times and ring the doorbell. No answer, I'm in the truck driving away. If she was a hottie, bad attitude or not, I made nicey nice and always made sure she got her package. Amazing what women wear or barely wear when they're home mid-day.

LMAO, I'd do the same! :D

My only problem with the men in brown is one time they hid my package. I have a huge ass fron porch that leads right to the front door, no secrets there, but the idiot hid it in the back of the garage, in a pile of other boxes so it blended in...man that made me mad. USPS just sometimes takes for ever, but usually its ok if you get Priority.
 
well i finally got it its WAS dropped off at 10.37 a.m. i guess he drove up on the wrong block he said he saw a trailer with the address 166 and counted down a few and said he figgured it WAS IT!! i told him well you figgured wrong. i said it plainly says apt what do you think it freakin stands for. what an idiot. so i had to run through my neighbors yards knocking on the doors seeing if they had it so instead of getting it at 10.37 am i got it at 6:00. oh well at leaast i got it
 
my ups guy kicks ass. he knows i work night shift, and will beat on my door and ring the bell to get me up and to the door. he also makes sure he never stops by before 2pm so he's not waking me up early.

how about a modified chant ;)

I'm:
down with the brown
down with the brown
down with the brown
"what are you doing" she screamed.
