Poor UPS Guy...

when they went to deliver my brake kit i was about an hour late so i got the usual pick up notice. i called and the supervisor got on the phone and told me the driver said for me to call him on his cell phone because he didn't want to have to unload and reload it again the next morning. the guy showed up 15 minutes later and said to me " thank god! this s#$t is heavy!". i gave him $20 since i didn't have to go pick it up.

Not all these guys suck. Just the ones who used to deliver to my Englewood address. I just changed my shipping address to my work and everything started to come in one piece again.

The problem is that many computer parts suppliers will only ship to an address that matches to the card used to make the purchase to prevent fraud. I see their point of view but I ended up with three smashed computer cases and two non-funtional hard drives. Yes, insurance paid the bill but it still put some of my clients in a bad position. Auto parts left in the rain sucked too. A simple 1 foot push would had it under the overhang. No real damage to auto parts except for soggy instructions and nasty wet cardboard thank goodness. I never once even saw these guys so attitude could not have been a problem.

Once I moved, there were no more problems. :)
