When it absolutely, positively has to get there in one piece, send it via the US Postal Service.
How hard can it really be to find him? Where did they get the copy of the video?
That certainly hasn't been my experience. The USPS is fully unionized and has even less of an incentive to handle with care.
Hope that was sarcasm. I’ve has USPS literally stuff over-sized parcels into my mailbox. I had to replace an old aluminum mailbox, because they crammed in a box that warped the structure and the door wouldn’t close.
During the holidays, these guys are probably so over-worked that they don’t want to deal with people. I’ve had FedEx AND UPS leave packages on my doorstep without so much as a push of the ringer. Just drop and go.
FedEx and UPS generally deliver to the post office here but I build a simple delivery box that sits in the doorway of the garage just in case.
A number of years ago, I went to the local Fedex terminal to pick up a package. It was on a Saturday I think. I followed the Fedex person out into the terminal area. While she was getting my package out of pile, there was a Gateway computer in the familiar black and white box. She kicked the the crap out of that computer to get it out of her way. I thought it was kind of funny, but then again, it wasn’t my computer.
Ah, come on. You can clearly see that he aimed for the grass.

Yeah, no, but close.
When it absolutely, positively has to be lost in one piece, send it via the US Postal Service.
I find that FedEx has the best record for intact/on-time for me in Dallas. UPS is bad (I used to work for them) but still far better than number three, the USPS. Since when does “Express Mail with Overnight Delivery” between two major cities mean a week?
I immediately contacted the FedEx distribution center to report the error and they said they would contact the driver and have him return to where he had dropped off the package.
That never happened, it remained lost. While the package was insured, it wasn't insured for the full amount so the seller was out $90.
I sent letters to the president of FedEx to complain about the lack of attention given when I immediately reported the loss and he basically said too bad.......
‘Don’t recieve much from Fed-ex, but the UPS guy—or at least the regular one on our route—is a PR dream for their company. He always delivers to the door, has something poitive to say and ALWAYS thanks us for the business.
TRACK DOWN???? They know EXACTLY who he is, but I think he’s black, so maybe nothing will happen to him at all....week suspension WITH PAY!
Tracking him should be easy. Just track the packing label and reference the truck/driver and delivery confirmation.
Most confirmations are recorded in real time.
The whole thing should take, at most, 5 minutes.
couple of years ago had to ship a laptop to another office
It arrived with a giant hole in box. Laptop was all bent
Someone had run forklift into box. Fedex refused to pay up
on the insurance claiming since not had been shipped in
original box and packing material was not responsible
Ironic thing was the laptop still worked.....

Our postal service in Columbus Ohio sucks.
The UPS guy in my area is great. He rings the bell or knocks and leaves the package by the front door. The FEDEX guy on the other hand always leaves the package leaning against the garage door. I expect some day to open the garage door and back over one his deliveries.
I sent a package of bed linens in a box and shut down the entire post office. To find a good, strong box I went to the hardware store and found a sturdy box that orginally had insecticide cans.
The post office had a fit, thinking I was engaged in chemical warfare. The postmaster high poobah called and said I terrorized his staff. I told him that I was grateful that they didn’t call the Air Force and nuke the blanket and queen-size sheets. I also informed the PO that bedsheets rarely blowup. The PO never liked me after that incident.
FedEx blows the doors off of UPS and USPS for one reason and one reason only:
The latter are both union-thug, FedEx is not.
