    UPS is no better. I had a critical package overnighted to the following address (actual address a different #) for delivery Thursday.

    Spec Suite 1234
    1234 E Tufts Ave
    DENVER, CO 80237.

    They said they couldn't deliver because there was no suite listed.

    Called them and clarified the suite #. They confirmed and revised the ship-to address. Today tracking still say they can't deliver. Address is legit and I see UPS in the building all the time.

    WTF?

    Speaking of this type of deal....(USPS) I tried something with a co-worker once albeit many years ago and I wonder if it would still work in today's world. On a piece of paper, I wrote "Hi". Stuffed it in the envelope, with no postage stamp on it........used his address as the return to, and my address as the send to, and dropped into a mailbox.

    He received the letter a few days later.

    They put all the data in a computer and this is what it came up with. We are at the mercy of fools.

    I see what you did there.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
