I've always had the same problems with UPS, I avoid them like the plague if I can. Most times I don't even get a notice until they say it's the third attempt. I've had several times where I actually was home and they didn't even bother to ring. Not to mention the stupid office is only open 9-5 Monday through Friday, who can go pick something up with those hours???
One of my neighbors works for them and he actually sympathized with me, he said our driver was a complete idiot and actually tried to pull some shit with him before he knew he was also an employee. Thankfully, he's been really cool, if he sees I have a slip he'll pick up the package for me when he goes to work.
I never have those problems with FedEx either. They're usually really good about leaving notices and they're open until 8:15 during the week and on Saturdays. I need to start a really successful mail-order business and make it a point not to use UPS.
