I've never encountered a problem with UPS. I use them all the time and also my work uses them as a primary carrier. Federal Express I have had numerous problems with. USPS does just fine for me also. |

FedEx would deliver a lot of my packages when I was living in California. They were okay, but they weren't as gentle with my packages as UPS usually is. I used FedEx to ship the record collection we had down from California to Seattle and we were told that the records would be just fine and not a lot of damage would be done to the packages, when we got to Seattle, we were a little shocked to see the condition of the box's. Luckily the records made it safely, regardless.

I've always had problems with UPS. All the other expedited parcel services have been good to me so far, like DHL and FedEx. Even Canada Post is decent.
Just last week, my mom had to order something for her car that had to be shipped from somewhere else. She went to Chrysler, put in her order and paid for it, and the guy at the dealership was like "yeah it'll be delivered via UPS". It didn't come when it was supposed to, and my mom called Chrysler to see if they mailed it - they did but she found out UPS delivered to the wrong address, so they sent it back. Now they sent it out again and hopefully UPS delivers to the right house. **** them. |

Don't you know that all haulage companies lie? I worked in the freight game for almost 30 years, dealt with enough trucking companies to know that too many of them will tell you what you want to hear just to get the business. Did you pack it professionally? We were always telling people it can't ship unless it's professionally packed...
Funniest thing (well, not funny at the time but I laughed) ever was when I arranged for a friend and her boyfriend to use our services to ship their house contents to Spain (from Ireland). There was a TV in it --- don't think it was flatscreen or anything, not at that time --- and when it arrived it was damaged. That's not the funny bit. How sick are you guys?? The bf's name was Jesus, so we got a letter from her saying basically: "The TV is destroyed, and Jesus is hopping mad!" Powerful friends, eh? We all had a good laugh about that. No, we shouldn't have, I know. But we did anyway.

When people small-talk about the weather when you serve them in the shop you work in.
