Ups sucks massively. They will not leave packages at my door, unlike FedEx, and I always have to arrange to rummage through their warehouse for stuff. I got up in one of their managers fsce about once as to how stupid their policies were. I wonder if any of it is related to the fact they are union.
They are trained snitches too. My fishing buddy used to be a driver for them while he was finishing graduate school.
He told me that UPS brought in detectives who worked in a multi-jurisdictional drug task force. They mostly chased down small indoor pot growers, they DID NOT PURSUE organized or cartel big operations. The detectives told the UPS personnel to call the Feds if the suspected a big boy operation.
They taught the drivers what the growers would order, high intensity light bulbs, soils, soil additives and the like. They were also trained to look for jumper wires on power poles and service panels. Many people tried not only growing the stink weed in the city/suburban areas but they also stole the power to run the lights. (Dumbassess didn’t think the utility companies had any idea how much juice flowed thru the system!)
Anyway, my friend said that was too much. He didn’t want to be a junior police enforcer. That big brown truck was a huge target for revenge. Ever since I look at UPS with a jaundiced eye. Companies should not put their employees at risk like that, it’s bad enough with the legalized thievery and jackings, that’s all a driver needs to have to watch out for someone they snitched out. UPS doesn’t allow their drivers to carry.
