What would happen if I were to go to the UPS Store or even to the UPS Terminal in Evansville and drop my packages just inside the door? Would they be properly taken care of, picked up, addressed, and delivered in a timely manner? I’m going to go out on a limb and assume they wouldn’t, nor would UPS employees be too pleased with me dumping boxes right inside their breeze way where people walk.
So, I have to ask, why is it ok for a UPS driver to assume he’s the center of the business universe and drop packages at the most convenient place for them? 99% of the UPS drivers I encounter are bent on interrupting my business to sign for a package, that may or may not even be within seeing distance. I’ve been interrupted on the phone, while talking with another customer, even bothered when on my way to the bathroom.
NOTICE – UPS Driver, you are not the most important person in my day to day dealings, wait your turn and do your job.
I am paying for a service, which includes picking up packages in a designated area in my business and delivering packages to my recipient. Delivery does not mean what’s easiest for the driver. Delivery should mean they are handed either to the individual receiving or dropped off in a designated area for receiving items. I will no longer sign, nor tolerate receiving packages that are out of my eye sight, nor will I walk through my warehouse searching for where they were dropped off. UPS drivers be warned, you will be wasting yours and my time if you fail to do your job properly.
