Not happy with UPS

[dswalterwi at earthlink.net (Don Walter)]

Maybe they should be called OOPS instead of UPS.

Well, make that two UPS bashers, we have a running joke around here when we 
see their trucks, that they are going to "the island", where all the people 
get put that piss us off. Brown is in the very middle of that island. Did 
they ever screw my son around on one of his parcels, it went on for a week 
and a half. like something off a sitcom. I had some fun with them myself, 
they're not easy to get results from unless the parcel gets dropped 
correctly the very first time. Subsequent attempts will be frustrating, but 
eventually you'll get your stuff. That's been my experience anyway. I doubt 
the senders ever knew there was a problem.
