UPS Rant

This is a non-nail polish related angry rant at UPS. If you don't want to read me rant about UPS, you probably don't want to read this. GRRRRRR

Ok, so UPS has seriously lost their mind. I had ordered some Bath & Body Works products a week ago and they shipped them UPS. I correctly listed my address. I always check this to make sure. It was being sent UPS and yesterday it said it was "Out for Delivery". Yay! I love getting pacakges..but no...

Around 5:30pm the status updated to "EXCEPTION- UPS is looking for the correct street address". So, I'm like WTF? I checked the invoice again, and the address is listed correctly. I've lived in the same exact address for almost 4 years and I get 2-3 packages from UPS a month without any problems. I live in an apartment complex which I can understand makes things more confusing, but this has NEVER been an issue ever. I've always received my packages.

I call the UPS center here and explained my situation.  I verified the address with the lady and she said that is what is listed in the computer and she would call the driver. I know for sure that even before a package is mailed through the UPS system the address has to be confirmed as an accurate address. My Dad has a business and uses UPS to ship and he verified this too through his system with my address to make sure. Everything was correct. The lady on the phone said she'd call me right back.

2 hours later... I get a call from the person at UPS telling me the same driver who has serviced this area for 10 years cannot find my address. He was in the apartment...he found my apartment number, but said it wasn't in the building it was supposed to be in? There are no other buildings in this complex with my apartment number.

This makes absolutely no sense to me. I went outside and checked my building and address number..nothing has changed. Did I slip into another dimension? Am I in a episode of Twilight Zone, Doctor Who, Star Trek, or Candid Camera? I love how UPS talks to me as if I'm the one who has lost my mind. How can a driver who I've had visit my apartment to deliver packages almost 100 times in 4 years not be able to find my apartment anymore?

I have a feeling UPS is lying to me. I think either this was a different driver OR the driver wanted to leave early so he put in that he couldn't find the address.... They are going to try and re-deliver today. I had to give them more specific direction. What floor I was on...what side of the building I was on..really? We'll see...I just know if this was nail polish I'd be way more pissed off....

What gives UPS?

We'll see if it's a "Happy Tuesday!" :P
