Reply to: Why your package is late: mail and package carriers suspend guarantees, cancel routes, suffer delays Posted July 21, 2020

I’m not sure if I’m allowed to disclose what I deliver for or where so I’m gonna keep this vague…..but the reason we loosened signatures right now is because idk if everyone is like this but with us u use your exposed finger to sign our scanner phone which obviously could spread a virus with ease depending on how many different people sign a day. At the start of the virus supplies for cleanliness were almost non existent it was hard to get our hands on the proper supplies from our terminal to clean them every single time someone signed. Also it limits our contact with you, the customer because no one wants to get sick ew lol. Alot of those packages u get that are destroyed isn’t the delivery driver, in my case it’s my loader. We don’t load our own trucks, they are pre prepared when we arrive every morning and after we quickly sort we get outta dodge to move massive weight like a gastric bypass. I’ve seen loaders, generally undereducated young kids that don’t care about what they are doing step on packages, throw them, one time I got in my truck in the morning seeing two full shelves free and every box had been chucked in the middle of the floor. Yes we are overstress about package volume but thats still no excuse, we are required to take proper measures if ur package did suffer some sort of damage because it’s not only unprofessional but down right embarassing when u have to give what used to be a rectangle now turned octogon to someone.  I’ve also seen other drivers just as careless, also take into account people don’t order essential things…but rather new flashy rims for their cars, tires every week, dining room sets, dirt bikes, windows, anything u can dream of….and oh gotta love sofas. We can only do so much to insure your package is okay before it’s destined to suffer damage. Also people order things when they live in the worst and weathered places on the planet expecting u to come bring it into their dining room, like sorry grandpa but I’m NOT gonna take it up your half mile long pot holed driveway with 4 German Shepard sitting outside barking up a storm, hell yeah it’s gonna be late.
