Well, they do! Anything goes out here in God’s Country. ;)
How did that petulant strike work out for them?
Amen !
Just received a package from Amazon today. Joseph Conrad, “Heart of Darkness”. Nothing like a little light reading.
We have standard numbers on our mailbox painted on both sides by the company we bought the mailbox from.
Then, we have a standard number on our front door and back door ramp.
One of our adult sons put our standard single digit number on the sides of the curbs to our driveways.
Same here.
FedEx is more secure, and Amazon is cheaper for their in store stuff.
I know a lot of people who work for UPS. There is still a Christmas rush, but considerably far less than in prior years as Amazon has taken up more and more of their own deliveries and not utilizing UPS as much. They will deliver a lot of their own packages even if the person is not a “prime” customer.
Our Walmart only allows pickup and no home delivery for most orders.
Often, we would get home and realize that our order was missing a few critical items. They didn’t tell us that those items were shorted from our order.
Mine just leaves a note to pick them up at the post office 30 minutes away.
Sometimes I go. Sometimes they get sent back to Amazon.
Sometimes Amazon delivery delivers things right to my door.
My PO is getting Amazon orders that I place
Early forms of DEI hiring were a major reason nice cities got destroyed. It wasn't so much DEIs at work, but everything outside.
In elementary school, about in second and third grade, young Americans received lots of brainwashing. The classroom lights were turned off and a film projector ran. Some of the messages were: don't litter, don't smoke, nuclear power is good, communism is bad, pledge allegiance to the American flag. Thankfully, most of the brainwashing was conservative. These days, that's definitely not true.
The corporate media did a pretty good job of brainwashing against unions. Unions were consistently demonized over time, and our opinions against them were assigned. Now, it's not so clear unions were always the bad guys they were made out to be. MBA globalist spreadsheet-monkeys have been brutal to Americans, replacing whole professions with cheaper non-American imports.
I also see a lot of USPS Priority Mail deliveries.
Same here. We've recently moved to the South Carolina lowcountry, but the above was the same in my former Connecticut neighborhood as well.
Guess I've been awfully busy lately... I thought UPS was going gangbusters with everything being shipped everywhere these days. I'm surprised to hear about these UPS layoffs.
