He should consider himself lucky. It could have been a lot worse.

Ben Lucas was shocked when he found his packages damaged earlier this month. That's when he went to the surveillance videotape and saw the shocking moment the driver urinated on his home. UPS eventually apologized and fired the seasonal deliveryman.
This guy puts the pee in UPS.
A Houston deliveryman was canned from his job after a customer caught him on camera taking a leak on the side of his house.
Ben Lucas went to the tape after items inside a package delivered to his home this month in the Heights neighborhood were broken and busted open.
He suspected the United Parcel Service worker tossed the packages over the fence. The man did — but instead of just taking off, he took time to heed nature’s call.
"I don't know how UPS trains their employees to go to the bathroom, but probably not someone's yard," Lucas told KHOU-TV. “It’s not like the cameras are hidden. They’re in plain view.”
Lucas posted the 100-second clip to YouTube Tuesday. It shows the driver pull up, toss the packages then proceed to pee on bushes and the side of the house. The stunned homeowner included pictures of the aftermath, showing how a large parcel filled with ammunition had burst open.
The driver’s pee was still visible when Lucas photographed the disturbing evidence.
“You're paying someone to take a package to go from point A to point B. So basically I paid someone to come to my house and pee on it," Lucas told the station.
The angry homeowner contacted the local UPS franchise and got in touch with corporate. After several dead ends, Lucas decided to post the video online and even to the UPS Facebook page to get some results.
A supervisor eventually called and promised to replace the broken items.
Ben Lucas was desperate to bring the bizarre incident to the attention of UPS brass, but it wasn't until he posted the video to the company's Facebook page and gave it to the media that they finally apologized.

"She was apologetic and wants to send me a 'we're sorry' gift," Lucas told KHOU.
UPS later fired the seasonal worker for violating “decency and delivery care” rules.
“No behavior like this is acceptable,” the company said in a statement.
Oh look.
A grocery store checkout type story.
What are bat boy and the Mexican wolf family up to these days?
When y’gotta go... but you’d think UPS would have a plan for that, as in a number of “safe houses.”
:)
It was actually delivered from point A to point Pee.
UPS probably penalizes their drivers if they pull off route to use an honest to God restroom, the driver was just trying to keep to his delivery schedule. :^ (
What’s with these younger guys, geez. That’s what Gatorade bottles are for.
“It’s the way of the road.” Ray
In daylight do it in a bottle in the truck.
Well, it’s better than that postal worker who dropped a deuce in that guys yard.
“”I don’t know how UPS trains their employees to go to the bathroom”
The one who delivered to the building I used to work in always stopped at the head after making his deliveries.
Say, that was rather good.
“Trucker Bombs.”
Now if we could only fire the bureaucrats who pee on us.

Looked like a shipment from Midway. Hmmmm Good.
Reminds me of the pooping mailman that left more than letters at a citizens house - on film.
The driver should have kept a container in his truck for emergencies like this.
