    These drivers are treated like shit. There is a reason why things are the way they are. I didn’t get my package right away, but it’s okay, because eventually I did and they just left it. They’re asked to do much for way too little. Remember, it’s the fuckers at the top that cause all of our problems. Don’t blame the help.

      I mean thats cool and all but somebody has to deliver the packages. It’s not the recipient’s fault the job sucks, the recipient paid for delivery with an expected time of reciept. Entering gate codes is part of the job, ringing doorbells and actually waiting for someone to answer is part of the job, actually stopping at the goddamn address and getting the package out of the truck and going up to the door with it is part of the job. If they have unreasonable expectations placed on them, that’s between them and their manager. I fail to see what it has to do with me or my package. I had FedEx leave notes on my door THREE consecutive times saying “we could not deliver your package because ‘the business is closed.’” It was a residential address, and the package contained critical medical equipment. Mofo had those slips ready so he could cut and run without looking for the package.

      I mean, I agree. But also is it not just more work for them to bring the package back to the facility? If they would just leave the damn package they could save us both from more work!

          Sometimes they’ll leave it at a secondary pickup location, so it’s at least an additional stop for them then.

      They won’t deliver FedEx Ground packages to my workplace because it takes too long. Only next day or other priority levels are delivered.
