Let’s face it, we look at reviews 9 times out of 10 for most things. Or at least I do... but how many of you review places?

I had a terrible experience today at UPS Store. So I wrote a review.

quote:

DO NOT DO BUSINESS HERE! Very rude staff and owner. I dropped off a package and the woman nearly forced me to make a donation because I didn’t tape the shipping label to my box prior to coming into the store. It seemed as if it was an inconvenience for HER to tape it for me. I told her I had shipping tape in the car and that I’d go out and take care of it but she kept taping it and started fussing about me not being prepared before drop off. She told me twice to make a donation and I refused. I also never received a receipt for my shipment.

After getting home I decided I really wanted my receipt. Luckily I live within a couple minutes drive of the store. I get back to the store prior to them closing and another staff member was giving me a hard time. She said she couldn’t print out a receipt because the package was already in the truck, so I asked her if they normally not offer receipts. Her rebuttal was “Well, most people don’t ask for receipts.”

So happens the UPS delivery driver was at the location picking up the day’s packages. He was nice enough to let me get my package off his truck to rescan for a receipt. The woman was very lazy about the entire situation. After getting my receipt I offered to drop my package off near the truck for the guy, and he came outside and said “Man, she was really making it seem like that was a hard process.”

EVEN THE UPS DELVERY GUY NOTICES A LACK OF QUALITY CUSTOMER SERVICE AT THIS LOCATION.

Not to mention the fact the store rarely opens on time. Needless to say, I won’t be back.

If I could give this place a zero I would.


Are most reviews impulsive? I thought about this one for about half an hour and decided to post one.

I ask all my patients to. Another patient who came in because he saw my ratings on Google Review asked me if I knew how high they were. I don't, I don't look at it. He works sales and marketing for his company and said they would pay thousands in sign on bonuses for salesmen with so high reviews.

I just came here to say, "your thread sucks."

Good day.

There is no reason to be upset.

Typically only if I’ve had an awful experience.

At the end of the day I’m not upset... just wondering why people have to be such dicks.

Did you stop to ask yourself what she may be going through? What if she spends all night caring for a sick at home Hospice loved one, had to wake up early and go to dialysis 3-4x a week so she can make it back just in time to open the store right on time. What if she had a mental disorder but instead of bleeding our tax dollars she is trying to be a productive member of society?

Is this your first bad experience there?

You sound like a b!@tch in that rant. If I read it I would wonder more about you than her. After all you did show up unprepared and used their supplies to correct YOUR actions.

UPS Store = Franchise not the official UPS Company.

There comes a point when a review is so wordy and womanly that people will just assume you’re a bitch. Your review meets that criteria.

I own two insurance agencies, and it's something we ask all of our clients to do.
Because of our reviews, phones ring everyday and we get a decent amount of traffic to our website requesting services.
It's 100% free, and it is one of our strongest marketing tools.

So you wanted her to fix your package up for shipping, and you didn't want to pay her for it? You sound like an a-hole.

You mean like when they show up unprepared to conduct simple business, can't be decisive about wanting a receipt and then write an angst-filled sour review?

You went all caps, twice.

You are upset.

If you take down the review, you’ll feel better.

I do occasionally, but I don’t really want my name & photo visible on random reviews.

I see that both bad cases involved dealing with women while the 1 occurrence with a dude went smoothly.

I’m shocked.
