This isn’t NYC, it’s a dumpy apartment complex in Northern Cali. I see eviction notices posted on doors in this place every other week.
I can’t stand you UPS guys

I had a customer once that put a completely wrong street name down from his actual address so I “no such street” it and he said why I didn’t try to go look for the correct street name.. the only part or the street that was right was the word mountain and in a ski resort town that narrows it down to about 100 streets.

Had a customer go off on me yesterday for a late package. It was for a rather large apartment complex, the address was correct but there was no unit number. So I sheeted it APT on Monday. Delivered it yesterday and since it was signature required I had to meet the customer. The first thing this dude says when he answers the door, “This was supposed to be here yesterday!”
“Sorry sir, I didn’t have a unit number to deliver it to.”
He then insisted I should’ve tried harder to reach him. I asked him if I should’ve knocked on every door in the complex and his reply, “if that’s what it takes yes!”
“Okay, have a nice day sir!”
He couldn’t leave it at that, before slamming his door his exact words.. “I guess this is what I should expect from idiots who get paid minimum wage to carry boxes around. God, I CANT STAND YOU UPS GUYS!” I literally LOL’d as he slammed his door, which probablyhim off more.
This made me wonder, when a package is going to an apartment and there’s no unit number on the shipping label is that on our end or did the customer forget to enter their apt # when they ordered it? I always thought it was a somewhat common mistake people made while shopping online. Does anyone know if this is ever a UPS friend-up?

The funny part to this is he thinks of the UPS driver as an idiot that makes min. wages. Little does he know that "idiot" probably makes twice as much as he does. LOL
The Driver
I drive.
Probably 3 or 4 times as much.

make sure to use a good RTS/reason to really set him off.

You are not supposed to be delivering off the pal label anyways.

Correct but as a former driver and package on road I know that there are plenty of drivers out there that assume the information on the pal and label are the same

nowhere special
Like all preloaders?

Like they have time to check to make sure all the labels are matching.
