“WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU SENT IT OUT FOR DELIVERY AGAIN!”
— Me about 2 hours ago on the phone with a nice lady at UPS
I hate dealing with UPS. Besides the fact that they have their only depot up on Lenard St. (in the Ross Industrial Park here in Regina), they close at 6pm and are not open on weekends. This would be acceptable if the staff at the depot were not the dreges of society who exist soley to make me, one of UPS’ customers, feel like strangling them. They are intentionally stupid. They do stupid things and this is not the first time this annoyance has occured. Everytime I deal with them it is like having teeth pulled (and I know both so the comparision is valid: both leave you feeling less happy with your day, and hurts a lot).
On the third delivery attempt, they are supposed to take the package back to the depot and hold it for five days before sending it back (unless it is a COD which this isn’t). Some “nice” person there decided to delivery it again today (for a fourth time), and screwed up all my plans to pick it up at lunch. Now I’m going to have to ditch out of work earlier then I wanted to so I can pick up the damned webcam. ARGH!

Yes, that’s what I meant. Purolator, Fedex, and Canada Post almost always deliver to my house between 8am and 9am (though there have been some exceptions but at least they have convient hours of operations). I’m usually home when they deliver my packages. Urgh. I need Terry Tate. He needs to visit UPS for me.
