Again UPS has screwed me over with a delivery. I pull up the tracking info and it says it has been sent to Paris, TN because the street address was missing. So I call them. Sure enough, the address was right there. So she said I could come pick it up in Paris between 2:30 and 6:30. Paris is a pretty good drive from here. About an hour or so. I told her no, you can deliver it today like you were supposed to. It isn't my problem that your drivers either can't read or don't care to do their job correctly. The last time I had experience with UPS they delivered to an address 2 blocks away even though everything on the label and the street signs were very clear. I told her Fed Ex and the post office don't have this problem and it wasn't by my choice that this was sent UPS. She didn't like that and said that someone would be calling me back by the end of the day.
So really, why is it so damn hard to read an address and deliver it? My house isn't in the boonies, nor are there a bunch of houses nearby for confusion. The number is very easy to read on the mailbox. Does UPS not have a policy that requires drivers to be able to read? Do they not understand that street numbers generally have a pattern of incrementation and that if you cross a county line that can change? Get a freaking GPS if you are that stupid. Better yet, quit and let someone who actually can read and does want to do the job take over.
I know there are probably some UPS employees on here and if I offend you, tough. Your company has not lived up to expectations on multiple occasions. If I ever have the choice for a delivery service I won't choose UPS.
Just got that phone call and it will be delivered Monday. Which means another WEEK of not being able to drive my Jeep because the only time I have to work on it is WEEKENDS. She said it was because our road can be either east or west and the driver was confused because a direction wasn't in the address. Really? If it ain't one it's the other, scooter. Call the home office and have them google it for ya. It isn't rocket science. Better yet, call the sender and ask for my phone number which they had on file when I made the purchase.
