UPS has to be the most dysfunctional carrier ever

Tracking history of a package.
I live a few miles south of Ellick and the package got to Memphis twice ?, then to Jackson MS, then to Ellick on Thursday but then UPS decided to send it to Riviera Beach, FL.
WTH UPS.

You'll never see that package.

They all suck.
Fedex took a picture of my package in my mailbox. When I got home and checked, it wasn't in there.
Ended up getting a replacement, but flagged it with fedex and never heard back from them. Driver fricking stole it.

How do you know it was the driver?

I can’t imagine saying this in a world where the USPS exists

FedEx is way worse unfortunately. I use them both a lot at work. UPS is far superior.

FedEx contracts drivers (I think Ground is different than Fedex, etc.) whereas UPS is unionized shite. UPS frustrates me by doing shite like this:
1. Package shipped via regular ground from NY to Houston. Transit takes one day, I see it's sitting at the Stafford distribution facility. Excited I might get the package early.
2. The package sits there for four days, and then gets put on a truck to make the 5 day SLA for delivery.
This has happened repeatedly, and I will never, ever elect to receive packages via UPS or USPS if I have a choice. Will I ship stuff I sell on eBay with UPS? Yes, because I don't give a crap if the person 100 miles away receives it in two days or five, as long as it shows up.

I ship probably 5 items per week at work. We have FedEx and UPS pickup at the office so I can use either one. I've had 5x more issues with FedEx.

I think you meant FedEx and USPS

It’s frightening how many people are completely oblivious to companies doing the things you pointed out. There are some big financial donors and foreign organizations spending very large amounts of money to install board members on multiple companies boards of directors to make sure that “special interest” goals are pushed.

Mail service is really hard to do effectively at the speed and volume that they do. That being said, USPS is way worse than UPS, and FedEx has the worst service of the 3

Fedex won't even help you if they lose a package

agree

What happened?
I used UPS/Fedex a lot more 20-25 years ago and they were generally good. Light years better than USPS.

I know it's happened to me before. Upperdecker nailed with this ranking the main shipping services IMO
