What’s the reason for my wrath today? Like I noted previously, package carriers hate me. This week, it’s trying to locate the mysterious Best Buy gift card that needed to be sent by UPS and requires a signature, in person. Signed the Info Notice–not good enough. Now I’m waiting for them to call me back so that I can drive 20 minutes to pick up the darn thing.

I’m not home any day until at least 6:00. I’m out the door by 6:45 am. I’m just not here during the day and I really doubt that I’m the only one that faces this predicament. However, while I’m certainly not alone, there sure doesn’t seem to be too many people complaining about this! Come on! There’s got to be a better solution than this. I understand that UPS, Fedex, and USPS workers need to get home too, but can’t we come to some sort of compromise?

Argh, too frustrating…

    […] My last post is a great example of this. I should be sent to Mars for pointing out the problem with the FedEx, UPS, USPS, etc. situation without offering any proposed solution. Everyone can clearly understand the problem–people work from 8 to 5 everyday and can’t be home to get packages and other important mail. They can try to sign the paper forms left for them, but this only occasionally works. Carriers are worried that they can be held liable for damaged or stolen packages that they leave behind. […]
