You know who I mean - UPS
After years of seeing them arrive just after lunch time they shuffled the
map.
Now my shop is on the tail end of a run. Every day this week they have been
showing up after 6 pm.
I close at 6 pm.
Tracked packages that customers are waiting for don't arrive during the day.
Waiting for me the next morning is a post-it saying they'll try again the
next day.
6 pm rolls around - nobody. I'm forced to sit and wait for them to arrive.
I tell the driver this is unsatisfactory. She tells me there is nothing she
can do.
I'm calling their managers tomorrow. Almost every business in my corridor
closes at 5 or 6. In the past it was their rule that stuff would be
delivered before 5 pm to businesses.
I almost lost two large sales over this. On top of that I had to wait until
Wednesday to install my new Next LP crank.
Grrrrrr.
