RE: Untied Parcel Service... My gunsmith had an incident with a UPS driver
where he was waiting for a delivery of a dozen cases of ammunition, which
requires a signature on a federal form... He tracked the packages... The day of
delivery he left a note on the door that he works nights and was sleeping, and
to bang on the door and he would answer, and he went to sleep on the couch
which is all of 8 feet from the door... When he got up there was a notice of
"unable to deliver" stuck to the door... He is a light sleeper and did not
believe he missed the driver knocking... Next day he set his alarm and was up
before the usual time the UPS truck goes through the neighborhood... He hid
behind the curtain at the front window when the UPS truck pulled up... The
driver jumped out, no cases of ammo, ran up the porch steps and then right back
down the steps and was hustling to the truck... Jim opened the door and yelled
at the driver... Then pulled the new "Unable to deliver" off
the door... The driver of course, insisted he had knocked and waited... Jim
just looked at him and quietly said, "I was watching you the whole time!" and
went back in the house (it was snowing and he was barefoot and in his
jammies)...
The driver went back to the truck, set the cases of ammo out on the curb and
drove away...
Later that day when I stopped by to pick up my case of ammo Jim asked me what I
thought he should do, I suggested he do nothing at that point... That 99% of
UPS folks work like dogs <my driver is a peach of a guy who has even tracked me
to the local restaurant to deliver drugs> and that this clinker would hang
himself sooner or later... UPS drivers work under duress and a tiny few just
do not respond appropriately...
Jim later commented he was seeing a new driver on his route and that he had not
heard a word from BATF about the federal form...
