Proof that UPS sucks

[GT40FIED]

Alright...I ordered a 100-pack of blank DVD+Rs last week and have been keeping tabs on the shipment via UPS' tracking site (or trying to, anyway). Such bullshit...here's what it looks like with problem areas highlighted:



- First of all, notice the red bracket-thingy. It left California and then apparently vanished for 2 days. I find it a bit unlikely that a truck went all the way from CA to KS without stopping somewhere to check in considering that truckers can by law only drive for so many hours a day.

- Second, notice the blue arrow thing. From the time it got to Lenexa (about 2 hours north of here) it took 3 days to get delivered. Since it arrived in Lenexa on a Friday and got to Pittsburg the same day, one could reasonably expect it to get delivered on the next day, a Saturday. Wrong. They waited until yesterday.

-Third, I was in class when they tried to deliver it yesterday so they left a little note saying they'd try again today. Fine...that's my fault. But notice in the green circle thing that, after re-arriving at their facility in the evening that it apparently left again for delivery at 8:45pm. Huh? Simply stunning.

NOTE: The UPS driver actually came by while I was typing this. Haha. I'd left a note on my door asking them to just leave the box if I wasn't home, but she actually came back around because she said a couple of kids were hanging around and she didn't want to just leave it. She even thanked me for leaving the note. So UPS drivers are totally cool...UPS as a company blows.
