    I have not had any problems when the Amazon truck makes the delivery. UPS, FedEx, and USPS....it's a crap shoot. Amazon always shows a photo of the package sitting on my porch. I wish UPS and FedEx would implement that.

    This is true, except, the Amazon package Monday, was delivered by USPS.
    The Amazon package yesterday, was delivered by FedEx.

    Recently, I have had UPS deliveries made by a guy in a beat up pickup (different guy on both occasions). Obviously they are using independent contractors and not being picky about who they choose.

    Last week the UPS guy rolls in about 9:00 pm but instead of the brown truck he’s in a Budget Rental. Yep, truck broke and set him back 4 hrs but he made all his deliveries. The ones we have now is a good one. USPS is good as well. For the moment. Seems like they have a high turnover rate?

    UPS getting ready for the Christmas season increased package deliveries will usually rent extra trucks and put their part-time drivers in them to help handle the increase in deliveries.

    They take the pic right before the driver decides weather he deserves it more than you do.

    I have these 2 deliveries coming. One from USPS and another FedEx.

    The USPS package was in Austin (where I live outside of) 2 days ago. Now in Houston.

    The FedEx package went all the way to NY from Minnesota. Not even in the right direction after sitting in the same spot for 3 days.

    Both were scheduled to be delivered yesterday and now again today. I'm not holding my breath on either. SMDH. What the hell is going on with parcel deliveries?

    I've got large 6" contrasting color house numbers on the front of my house in plain view, yet the Amazon drivers and sometimes UPS still manages to leave the package at my neighbors house once in a while.

    What is odd is that when Amazon mis-delivers a package, they don't provide a photo like they do when they get it right. It's like they know they screwed up. If they took a photo, at least I would know which neighbor's house to check with.

    Got my chain saw parts from USPS today. Came from Utah,
    got to San Antonio twice, then sent on to Amarillo twice. 3rd trip to SA was the charm. Excellent clear shipping label so who knows what is going on ?
