UPS Blows, I live in a tight residential neighborhood. Our UPS person we currently have has no idea what streets he/she is on or just does not care. I have had my last 2 packages (New Egg) one was my i5-3570 and the other a 1TB WD hard drive both delivered to different addys a block or 2 away.
Im not the only one, the day I was waiting for my CPU it was late and Im getting nervous, I see a lady walking towards the house with a New Egg box and I go meet her. she hands me the box and we speak briefly. She tells me that she delivers many packages during the week. The driver leaves these packages at her house and she distributes them. I live at 1 Spring st, she lives at 1 Green st. She said she delivers up to 10 boxes a week. She is an older lady probably late 50's early 60's.
Both times I called UPS and lit the person in customer service up pretty good. But in a nice way. I wasn't an a-hole.
Several times on other days late in the afternoons when outside with my dogs, I see people walking the neighborhood looking for house addys. a fellow asked me just the other day which house was 3 Spring, I show him where it is and he says he got a call to come pick up his UPS package.
Unbelievable :/
