UPS trouble
-
Ok, so my girlfriend is home during the day and was waiting for my delivery from UPS. My doorbell is broken, so I put a sign on my door that says "knock, the doorbell is broken." My girlfriend would hear the knock or our 2 dogs would go absolutely ballistic, alerting her. The arse didn't knock! Attempt #3 is tomorrow, unless I can convince the jerk to come back at the end of the day.

There's your mistake, you thought he would be able to read. Tape over the doorbell.

Quite. UPS hires drivers based on their inability to perform menial tasks such as reading, verbally communicating, or counting. I had to go to my neighbor's house and put numbers on her mailbox because the UPS man assumed 8 came after 4 when counting even numbers.

It honestly wouldn't surprise me if he did it on purpose.

Exactly. I just thought about putting my red duct tape over the doorbell. Also, I left my phone number on the note. No call. The distribution center said the driver doesn't own a cell phone. So if you see a cute blond delivery woman, you can assume she's dumb as rocks and might believe you're Mark Zuckerberg when you ask her out?

LOL, that figures. Why own a cell phone when you can't read the numbers to call people? That would work except I'm sure she wouldn't know who Zuckerberg is...

As it turns out, using a mail-order service for getting a new door bell wasn't such a great idea after all. :laugh:

Never seen one of those working for UPS around here. Most of the women look like ex-Soviet era wrestlers, if you know what I mean... :~
WE ARE DYSLEXIC OF BORG. Refutance is systile. Your a$$ will be laminated. There are 10 kinds of people in the world: People who know binary and people who don't.

In my neighborhood they do not knock anymore they just leave the box by my garage door. Even when I am there and delivery confirmation is required.

I once caught the USPS carrier for my neighborhood leaving a missed-delivery slip for a piece of mail without knocking first, simply because he was talking on his cell phone while doing his route and didn't want to have to hang up. I followed him and got him to give me the mail anyway, which he attempted to do without hanging up or even muting the call.
