Voodoo Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 (edited) Don’t trust it. They said the same thing to me, in an email. When I tracked the package it said it was in Windsor at 3 pm. I called and they said it could still come that day, and I politely asked how in the fuck that was going to happen, but there was still technically 9 hrs left, in what would be a 5 hr drive straight to my house. It showed up the following Tuesday. Morons. Edited December 17, 2023 by Voodoo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bontz Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 UPS might be delivering on Sundays now, but I know they weren't (here, anyway) two weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may be just moving trucks around that you saw... Unless it's totally localized, we do not deliver on Sundays. I'm actually kind of surprised they they don't yet... I think it's only a matter of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 I did one time. Xmas was on Monday and we lost a day to a storm the previous week. Problem is most drivers are up against the 70 hour rule (I think I quoted to the OP it was 60... it changes to 70 after Thanksgiving week). Text the old boss.... he only saw it once as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even during Christmas I never worked that late, unless I was asked to go help a guy out. Which very rarely happened.... Fuck all that noise....

Sounds like a remote route. We have a guy who takes a small trailer about 30 miles away, and 2 drivers who live out that way come and load up and work from there.

Some years they had a small UPS van, now the larger trucks are delivering here, this area is remote, I live in the National Forest, under 17,000 live here in the whole county, 600 miles of snowmobile trails in this county alone.

He lives up that way so they bring a trailer up to him from Twin Mt. Last I knew he had a Ford Super Duty 4 wheel drive with a small box on the back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be spending it with my grand daughter. I wish I was getting 60.....struggling to get 55 hours with the help of Saturdays this peak. They hired way too much help. They try to send me PVD drivers to take even more of my work.....I say no thanks. Actually my immediate in car helper is pretty cool, He's a little skinny Indian dude 19 years old But he has no problem lifting any of the packages.... pretty strong for his size. I just stay and sort and he runs them all off. He hates his own race and even calls where he lives little Chindia because it's all Chinese and Indian. .... Says he always dates white woman and would never even consider an Indian. He's a stoner and I let him do his little vape thing dabs or whatever you call it in the truck. He's also a part-time loader at UPS, so I just tell him the sequence number and he often finds pkg before I do... So he's actually a really good helper. Hope he fulfills his dreams and becomes a heart surgeon like he wants to be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is one person that delivers everything (usps, FedEx, ups ect) so they are probably an independent contractor and deliver when they feel like delivering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XCR1250 Posted December 18, 2023 Author Share Posted December 18, 2023 Weird, my mailman delivered several packages yesterday (Sunday), he's been terrible, puts others mail in my mailbox, I'm sure some of my mail gets put into others mailboxes too..some things I never receive andthen I get e-mails saying they've been delivered..I won't put important mail in my mailbox but rather the wife takes them to the Post Office to be sure it gets sent to the correct address.

ckf Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 FedEx was here at 9:30 this morning. They normally don't even leave the depot until around that time and it's an hour away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
